- KidsX used the input from their member network of more than 30 hospitals across the world to develop the Wish List of problem statements they strive to solve. This will be the basis for the search for incredible solutions/startups to be a part of the inaugural accelerator class in January 2021. The 2021 Wish List is:
- Monitor patients at home, with wearables & bi-directional communication
- Care coordination tool between school staff, hospitals, pediatricians, specialists, therapists, and parents
- A Tool to coordinate multiple appointments for a patient with complex care needs
- Improve care transition from pediatric to adult healthcare
- Virtual rehab for kids (physical, speech, and/or occupational therapy) using gamification
- Improve pediatric mental wellness through mobile apps
- Preparing families & patients before surgery, with bi-directional communication & measuring pre-operative adherence
- Predictive analytics to predict adverse clinical outcomes in pediatric patients
Given all the exciting news above, we'd be glad for the GIANT community to get involved:
- Forward this in an email to others who may know of outstanding startups/innovators who should apply to the accelerator
