Digitalizing cancer care accross the South Baltic countries
About us
The Project aims at increasing the level of public e-health services by developing and demonstrating cross-border pilot actions in the healthcare systems. Especially the project focuses on social aspects, such as equality of access and inclusion of underserved populations (i.e. patients with long travel distance to hospitals) – which is important in all South Baltic regions and their mostly rural character). For the first time, five South Baltic countries (the consortium includes leading medical research institutions and clinical centers) with different healthcare systems will carry out a joint project to develop an innovative model of implementation of high quality e-health solutions. Goals The objective is to carry out pilotsof different e-health solutions at several sites across the South Baltic and that way to develop a model of e-care for cancer patients. Digitalisation in healthcare can make it more accessible for everyone and provide innovative solutions, which can reduce the number of hospital visits and improve delivery of high quality care and rehabilitation. Our Activities 1. Clinical recommendations for e-care solutions. Evaluation of feasibility and validity of home monitoring of blood values in cancer patients using novel Point-of-Care Technology (POCT) devices in patients ́ home. 2. Clinical recommendations for e-rehab (during & posttreatment) Two pilot studies will test digital solutions to enable patients to participate in physical rehabilitation at home (early digitalized rehabilitation conducted during chemotherapy and digitalized rehabilitation post-treatment) 3. Clinical recommendations for e-rehab (during&posttreatment) Cross-border experiences from the pilots will be collected and analyzed together with mapping of status quo thus continuously feeding model building and development of joint solutions and the patientcentered Model for the implementation of eCare (eMoC).

During the last week of June, we presented two of our exciting activities that are taking place at Ängelholm Hospital at the conference Design4Health2024 held at Sheffield Hallam University in the UK. Lab4Living was the host. Twenty-two countries were represented with a wide range of disciplines. The theme was equilibrium in a time of permacrisis, which puts the post-pandemic state of healthcare in perspective. Patrik Göransson Göransson presented the work, which propelled and established Cancer Rehabilitation Online, now allowing cancer patients to access an interdisciplinary rehabilitation team digitally when the need is greatest. Carljohan Orre presented the experience and co-design work that fuels the North West Initiative at the Hospital. This activity develops person-centred practices in the context of self-management support at the medical clinic. It was fun and exciting to share our experiences and focus on these activities with an audience of people who take a clear design perspective in their work and research to develop healthcare. We also presented how we will continue developing these experiences in our work on an implementation model with our partners from Denmark, Germany, Poland, and Lithuania in the Interreg South Baltic Programme project Advanced Modelling of Baltic cancER e-care AMB@R. The conference asked good questions and offered exciting discussions; there is a good chance we will return if the conference is held again. A very big thank you to all the organisers.

🌟 Jeg har været rigtig glad for at deltage i AMBeR-partnermøde og advisory boardmøde med dygtige og inspirerende mennesker i skønne omgivelser på Ängelholm Sygehus i Skåne! AMBER-projektet fokuserer på et af mine favorit temaer - nemlig at spare borgerne for ture til sygehuset. Ved at bruge digitale hjælpemidler skal patienterne i projektet kunne monitorere egen sygdom og genoptræne i eget hjem. Et imponerende initiativ, der sigter mod større lighed og forbedret behandling og livskvalitet for kræftpatienter. 💪De digitale teknologier giver patienterne en nemmere måde at gå til kontrol mellem kemobehandlingerne på og gør samtidig genoptræningen mere tilgængelig og personlig 👥 Med over 20 millioner kr. fra EU vil førende medicinske forskningsinstitutioner og hospitaler i den sydlige del af Østersøområdet gennemføre et fælles innovationsprojekt. Onkologisk Afdeling på Sjællands Universitetshospital, Næstved, leder dette spændende samarbejde. 💡Den store gevinst? AMBeR flytter data, ikke patienter! Det minimerer behovet for fysiske besøg og gavner ikke kun dem, der bor langt væk, men også dem, der oplever træthed som følge af kræftsygdommen og behandlingen. De digitale muligheder gør det også lettere at inkorporere både behandling og genoptræning i hverdagen. 🌐Jeg håber at kunne bidrage til projektet og dermed mere digital fremtid for kræftbehandling!

🏡 𝐁𝐄𝐓𝐀. 𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐋𝐓𝐇 𝐱 𝐑𝐨𝐜𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐚𝐢𝐦𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐫 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬’ 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐬. ‘Blood Tests at Home’, the healthcare innovation project selected from our ‘Industry Call’ in partnership with Roche Danmark last summer, aims to enhance the quality of life for cancer patients by bringing care into their homes while also freeing up hospital resources for other important tasks. Before beginning chemotherapy, patients undergo blood tests to ensure they have adequate levels of white blood cells, platelets, hemoglobin and immune system function. Today, these blood tests must be done in hospital – and some patients require ongoing testing three to four times a week. Such frequent hospital visits place significant demands on patients and their caregivers. The Blood Tests at Home project aims to improve the quality of life for cancer patients and their caregivers through a new technology that enables them to perform these critical blood tests at home, eliminating the burden of multiple weekly hospital visits. In collaboration with partners in Germany and Poland, the team behind Blood Tests at Home is piloting a home-testing solution with 150 cancer patients from five hospitals located in Denmark, Germany and Poland. With this solution, the patient pricks their finger and completes a few simple steps to prepare the sample before inserting it into a scanner. When the results are ready, the patient photographs and submits them via the system’s dedicated health platform. The final iteration of the solution, which is under development, will be fully automated to send the results directly to the hospital. The team believes that this solution will make life easier for cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy by reducing the number of hospital visits – and the risk of infection inherent in those visits. ‘In practical terms, it can help patients spend more time at home with their loved ones instead of travelling to central laboratories for blood tests. That's how it's done today. This is a new way of thinking, where diagnostic equipment is brought into patients' homes’, explains Niels Henrik Holländer, Chief Physician in the Oncology Department at Sjællands Universitetshospital in Næstved, and a member of the project team behind Blood Tests at Home along with Keld Hundewadt. The team’s ambition is to develop a solution that enhances patient treatment, improves their quality of life and benefits the overall healthcare system in Denmark – but which can also be scaled and extended to all other types of cancer patients with similar needs in Europe and the rest of the world.

Study trip to Johanniter Hospital and Roche Diagnostics In the AMBeR project we aim to pilot test digital solutions in cancer care, and one of these is home monitoring of blood values, which can hopefully save some of the many trips to the clinic for cancer patients and their relatives. As part of the preparation, a group of AMBeR partners recently visited the Johanniter GmbH Krankenhaus in Bonn/Germany and the Roche Diagnostics in Switzerland for a series of fruitfull discussions and knowledge sharing on remote patient monitoring in future #cancercare – and some hands-on in trying out some new Point-of-Care devices. Thanks to Prof. Yon-Dschun Ko and Dr. Eike B., as well as to Jens Pflueger and Rasmus Julius Hansen for organizing this round trip.
