Are companies leveraging data-AI to enable personalise/targeted healthcare outcomes for patients?
Any companies in Bangalore, India? Any wannabe founders that want to brainstorm building in this space?
Personalised medicine, according to the NHS seems to be genome based medicine:
Here you go from NHS England:
I like the fewer side effects sales technique. For me this is about collecting an entire populations DNA and using that to assess whether an indivual is likely to become ill. All managed and run by AI.
PERSONALISED MEDICINE:
Imagine being able to get a faster diagnosis of a condition based on your unique situation, be given personalised treatments based on what would be most effective for you and experience fewer, if any, side effects….or even move away from simply managing an illness once you are sick to promoting health by predicting certain conditions and preventing them developing in the first place.
This is the basis for personalised medicine and by understanding the role our DNA plays in our health, it can help us transform how we think about our healthcare and help us deliver the four Ps:
Prediction and Prevention of disease
More Precise diagnoses
Personalised and targeted interventions
A more Participatory role for patients
By combining and analysing information about our genome, with other clinical and diagnostic information, patterns can be identified that can help to determine our individual risk of developing disease; detect illness earlier and determine the most effective interventions to help improve our health; be they medicines, lifestyle choices, or even simple changes in diet.
This can help us move away from simply managing an illness and instead focusing on promoting health.
