Nice to meet you! I am Sofie Bruggeman
I am 28 years old, working in Ghent area (InSites HQ) & living
in the city centre. I like to explore cities & to be overwhelmed
by nature’s beauty!
As a researcher, I soon was intrigued by the fascinating & rich
triangle patient – physician – pharmaco!
After 6 years, this fascination has only grown, especially in the
direction of the patient revolution.
This movement will change the industry & even more… the world!

“ “Pharma companies would do well to provide
tools that help patients help themselves.
Even if they’re not promoting your product,
they can offer it as a service of their
company. Then people who are swimming
around in the current talking to each other
say good things about the company because
it helped them.” E-Patient Dave

Apps throughout the patient journey
Apps are definitely not restricted to
medication reminders.
Different apps have already been
developed for patients in different
disease stages.
Let’s take a look at different apps in the
diabetes patient journey.
From prevention to insulin reminders
Case study
Apps in diabetes TA
to calculate the risk for a disease (prevention)
to find info about a disease
to keep track of what one consumes
to support in changing lifestyle
to create logbooks
…
… equipment which is enabling & empowering the engaged chronic patient!

EU support for
apps
“Health apps represent a technological
tool to help inform &
support citizens in the self-
management of their
health & wellbeing. They can bring
health information to our fingertips.
The best of these apps enable
us to act swiftly and
decisively on self- care
issues.”

European Commission

Bant – blood value measurement app
Bant (app) included a reward program.
Once they leveled up, they were able to
buy apps & music with the points
redeemed.
The rewards were quite the hit.
Over a 3-month period they increased
their frequency of
measurement by 49.5%.

investment?

Rule 5_Successfull apps maximize the power of the data it generates
Leads to an integrated
overview of the health
status of a person –
combined with potential
actions to be taken.

“A very well designed idea. It combines
lifestyle and mental health and is
expandable to broader groups. We love the
idea to embed this game in a care group.
Interesting that it uses a proven concept.”

Let’s not go too
fast!
is
NOT
the take away of
this presentation
Start creating
your own app
Just 1 example,
many more, so let’s
not go too fast!
Listening to what the patient needs
Apps for patients are only successful if they fill in
an existing need of a patient & if they take into
account existing barriers (practical, emotional,
physical…).
Connecting with the patient in an ongoing way
is the key to success.
Observe, get
inspired & then
act
People are out there Making conversations Patients are just like people Making use of social media As a healthcare sector Let’s not ignore but support the empowered patient
