Grace - Health Technology for a safe and effective solution to menopausal hot flushes and night sweats

在英国，每年约有30万女性开始出现潮热。他们不舒服，尴尬，最重要的是不方便，随时罢工-白天和黑夜。选择一个解决方案可能是令人困惑和困难的。这些日子可能很快就要过去了。Grace（产品名称）是世界上第一款自动跟踪和冷却手环，可以24小时随时检测和抵御您的潮红。格蕾丝的目标是在你知道你会有一个潮热之前检测到它。在这一点上，一个冷却补丁被激活在你的手腕上，旨在扭转冲水的影响。通过全自动化，Grace也可以在您睡觉时佩戴，以对抗夜间出汗。该项目的目的是展示Grace的技术和商业可行性。这将通过创建原型和招募症状严重的女性来验证性能来实现。我们的联盟汇集了医疗产品开发、制造和商业化方面的领先专家。此外，拉夫堡大学在全国大学排行榜上名列前茅，连续三年在QS世界大学学科排名中排名世界第一，是验证格雷斯绩效的项目合作伙伴。成功的项目交付将使我们的愿景能够改变全球对污名化健康状况的看法，为健康技术的设计铺平道路。

Around 300,000 women start experiencing hot flushes every year in the UK. They are uncomfortable, embarrassing and above all inconvenient, striking any time - day and night. Choosing a solution can be confusing and difficult. Those days could soon be gone.Enter Grace (product name), the world's first automated tracking and cooling bracelet, ready to detect and fend off your flushes 24 hours a day. Grace aims to detect a hot flush before you know you're going to have one. At that point, a cooling patch is activated on your wrist, aiming to reverse the effects of a flush. With full automation, Grace can also be worn while you're asleep to combat your night sweats.The aim of the project is to demonstrate technical and commercial feasibility of Grace. This will be achieved by creating prototypes and recruiting highly symptomatic women to validate performance.Our consortium brings together leading experts in the development, manufacture and commercialisation of medical products. Furthermore, Loughborough University, highly-rated in national university league tables and ranked No.1 in the world in the QS World University Rankings by Subject for three years in a row, is a project partner to validate the performance of Grace.Successful project delivery will enable our vision to change global perceptions of stigmatised health conditions, paving the way for health-tech designed to be seen.
