Population Screening

In infectious disease, our solutions for digital pre-screening and sampling of individuals in risk groups help caregivers finding those at risk of disease, linking them to care. In many cases, these individuals may be difficult to find and reach out to using existing care pathways. Our solutions make it possible to reach people at risk through their own smart phones. You can read more about our application for population screening of hepatitis C at hepatittest.nu (Swedish). Population screening applications for several other diagnoses are being set up, contact us if you are interested in getting more information about population screening tools.

Cascade screening

In genetic diseases cascade screening of families can be a very effective tool to reach undiagnosed cases. Through digital cascade screening, all relatives of an index patient can be contacted and invited to login to the screening tool. Samples can be taken, and patient reported data can be retrieved and transferred to the clinic for decisions regarding further actions and future care. Digital cascade screening allows for the possibility of charting whole families, as well as simplified sharing of information between care givers in different regions despite differences in existing digital systems.

At present, we deliver tools for cascade screening of familial hypercholesterolemia, a dominantly inherited disease where cascade screening has proven to be highly effective. You can read more about the project here. Cascade screening applications for several other diagnoses are being set up, contact us if you are interested in getting more information about cascade screening tools.

Tailored solutions to link risk populations to healthcare

Digital pre-screening is an efficient tool to find those at risk of disease using their own smartphones. Whole populations or specific groups can be targeted, sampled, diagnosed and treated, which means lives can be saved, and the cost of illness reduced. At BCB Medical we can support you in the design and implementation of a digital or digi-physical pathway that simplifies work and decreases the workload at the clinic.

Let us know if you are interested in a meeting to discuss how we can tailor our solutions to meet your specific needs to identify and link patients to health care.
