Startup of the Week - Elucid Mhealth
by Startacus Admin
Innovation in MedTech thanks to Manchester based startup Elucid Mhealth who are on a mission to support patients to take their medication properly.
One of the biggest concerns for healthcare professionals when it comes to medication is the issue of patients not taking it correctly – by either forgetting to take the correct dosage or even forgetting to take it at all.Having recognised this very challenge, our latest startup of the weekhave created an innovative solution.
Elucid Mhealth is a Manchester based startup which is on a mission to “support patients to take their medication properly”.
They have created advanced packaging which may look like a regular medicine bottle on the outside but which contains their patented technology on the inside.
Here’s how it works:
Medicine doses can only be accessed at the prescribed times and the correct quantity of medication is dispensed automatically.
Doctors and other relevant medical professionals will receive immediate alerts should a patient either miss or not 
administer a dose.
All data is gathered in real time and this thereby enables clinicians to accurately monitor a patient’s usage pattern and adherence to a prescription. The medicine containers can even be locked down remotely if necessary.
In essence then, this innovative technology is helping both patients and doctors alike. It is helping to enhance and improve the care given to patients and of course it is providing the medical professionals with hitherto inaccessible yet very valuable data.
