Enabling streamlined personalized breast cancer care
Breast cancer therapy
is challenging
As breast cancer care has evolved, survival rates have significantly improved. Advancements in diagnostic tools have enhanced the early detection of breast cancer, while an expanding range of treatment options allows for a personalized and more effective care today.
As the number of concurrent breast cancer patients rises, the care team faces the challenge of effectively integrating relevant information and treatment options to select the optimal care pathway for each individual.
Patients are not only coming to terms with a life threatening disease, they also have only limited time with the health care team to fully understand their individual case. Moreover, they encounter complex medical terminology in an unfamiliar territory, where decisions hold significant consequences for their future.
Therefore, effective collaboration and communication between physicians and patients are essential for navigating these complexities and achieving optimal outcomes for each breast cancer patient.
IDA is a digital health platform solution
that streamlines and personalizes breast cancer care.
Streamlined
IDA aims to improve breast cancer care by supporting physicians in generating
and tracking optimized treatment schedules for each patient. To achieve this,
IDA integrates all relevant information into a single, organized and accessible location. Coupled with the integration of real-time data, IDA allows physicians and patients to make informed decisions about each step along the care pathway.
Adaptive
IDA helps physicians to adapt treatment plans based on individual patient situations and preferences. For example, if a patient needs to undergo surgery earlier than planned, the treatment plan can be adjusted accordingly. Moreover, IDA incorporates the latest research and new treatment options approved by regulatory authorities such as the FDA and EMA.
Empowering
IDA facilitates streamlined communication by empowering patients to track their well-being in a standardized and structured manner and also providing personal evidence based information. With IDAs alert-based symptom monitoring, early detection of side effects becomes possible, leading to reduced hospitalization rates and improved patient outcomes.
IDA transforms the mode of care from appointment-based care to a continuous patient-centered journey.
