Tiers lieu projects
Project 1: Firefly
Solution: Stemming from a virtual reality application with a proven track record in the management and treatment of pain, the challenge of our partnership is an adaptation for caregivers suffering from immediate post-shift sleep disorders:
- A program of relaxation sessions aimed at reducing anxiety using a non-pharmacological approach.
Need :This solution could, by improving sleep quality, improve alertness and working conditions with a possible cascading impact on quality of life at work, quality of patient care and reduced staff absenteeism.
Contribution of the Tiers-Lieu :
- Improved robustness of the prospective randomized controlled interventional study, thanks to the switch from a monocentric to a multicentric study.
- Support for the recruitment of healthcare professionals working at night.
- Implementation and facilitation of co-construction workshops to adapt the universes and the device to the specific needs of healthcare professionals working at night.
Project 2: myCharlotte
Solution: Stemming from an application that has proved its worth in breast cancer support care, the challenge of our partnership is an adaptation for people affected by a characterized depressive disorder:
- Psychoeducation
- A digital therapy dedicated to depression
- A diagnostic and remote monitoring tool
Need: This application makes it possible to personalize care according to each patient's needs, to make the offer accessible to all both financially and geographically, and to aim for functional recovery by improving patients' quality of life.
Tiers-Lieu contribution:
- Set up and run co-design workshops with people affected by a depressive disorder to ensure that the application meets their user needs;
- Conduct, as promoter, until the Platform is registered on the LPPR (Liste des Produits et Prestations Remboursables), clinical studies related to the use of all or part of the Platform in the management of depression ;
- Participate as an investigating center in clinical studies relating to the use of all or part of the Platform in the treatment of depression;
- Edit scientific publications relating to the clinical studies referred to above.
Project 3: Dalia Care
Solution : Dalia aims to equip doctors with a tool for monitoring depression symptoms, using connected objects to collect biological, behavioral and environmental data.
- Analysis of physiological data captured via a connected object;
- Establishment of a patient's bio-signature = A unique profile for each patient;
- Measurement of mental state in real time.
Need : This approach enables personalized care pathways, treatments and early detection of relapses, in order to better support patients.
Tiers lieu contribution: Co-design of the patient application, real-life study of the complete solution to secure uses, clinical study to measure clinical benefit
Project 4: Neuromind
Solution : The Prévenir project is based on Neuromind technology, which couples a VR headset and an EEG headset enabling the measurement and induction of target emotional cognitive states through the modulation of sound and images according to biomarkers.
- Development of a digital therapy based on mindfulness meditation for the prevention of depressive episodes in patients in healthcare institutions and at home.
- The Neuromind technology could also be adapted for other chronic pathologies.
Need : The PREVENIR project aims to broaden the preventive management of major depressive disorder in order to avoid the onset of depressive episodes, while democratizing access to first-line psychological interventions by reducing their cost.
Tiers-lieu contribution: Definition of business needs, definition of use cases and functionalities of the patient application, development cycle and user testing.
Project 5: MetabolX
Solution : Application to improve professional monitoring of metabolic syndrome in patients starting psychotropic treatment & encapacitate patients in this monitoring.
- Monitoring of patient data related to metabolic syndrome
- Psychoeducation content to raise awareness among healthcare professionals as well as patients
Need : the ambition is to promote medication compliance and limit the risk of relapse.
Contribution of the Tiers-lieu : Co-construction of the patient application and the management console for professionals, support for the business model, support for the creation of psycho-educational content, assessment of the relevance of future developments.
