Technology Train Dis: The Center for Advancing Point of Care Technologies in Heart, Lung, Blood and Sleep Diseases

项目摘要/摘要--技术培训和传播 堆芯 医疗点技术促进中心(CAPCaT)在 心肺、血液和睡眠(HLBS)疾病是为了培训创新者开发新的临界点 护理技术(POCT)；并传播这些技术和关于 向广泛的利益相关者提供产品开发流程。心、肺、血和睡眠 (HLBS)障碍是美国发病率和死亡率的主要原因，尽管几十年来 在治疗、预防和结果方面的研究和实质性改进。医疗保健是 正在经历医疗服务提供从医疗中心和办公室环境向 远程监控和基于家庭的护理。POCT的发展将极大地便利和 通过以下方式加速这一转变：1)提供监控 人们在诊所外的日常生活中；2)向 护理点；以及3)向护理者和患者提供快速反馈，以改善患者自我 护理、症状检测、诊断和治疗交付。POCT产品开发是 具有挑战性，因为需要整合不同的学科，如人类生物学， 工程、软件和设备开发。新的模式在两个学术界都在不断涌现 和行业来实施跨职能开发团队，并加快 进程。成功的一个关键因素是开发新的培训计划，以揭露 POCT开发人员和用户了解与设备开发相关的临床和过程问题， 验证和商业化。CAPCaT将开发和领导创新教学计划 并利用互补的教育机会提供全面的培训和 POCT发展社区的传播计划。这一计划的亮点将是 包括一个模仿NSF/NIH i-Corps计划的短期课程，这是一个动态的教育系列 关于POCT开发的临床和过程元素，以及年度利益相关者 展示日。通过这些计划产生的知识将反过来用于 告知CAPCaT的其他核心活动。

PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT – TECHNOLOGY TRAINING AND DISSEMINATION CORE A major function of the Center for the Advancement of Point-of-Care Technologies (CAPCaT) in heart, lung, blood, and sleep (HLBS) diseases is to train innovators developing novel point-of- care technologies (POCT); and disseminate both those technologies and insights about the product development process to a wide group of stakeholders. Heart, lung, blood, and sleep (HLBS) disorders are the major cause of morbidity and mortality in the US, despite decades of research and substantial improvements in treatments, prevention and outcomes. Health care is undergoing a transformation in care delivery from medical centers and office-based settings to remote-monitoring and home-based care. The development of POCT will greatly facilitate and accelerate this transformation by: 1) providing methods to monitor health/medical status in people as they go about their daily lives outside the clinic; 2) delivering actionable reports to the point of care; and 3) providing rapid feedback to caregivers and patients to improve patient self- care, symptom detection, diagnosis, and treatment delivery. POCT product development is challenging because of the need to integrate disparate disciplines such as human biology, engineering, software, and device development. New models are emerging in both academia and industry to implement cross-functional development teams and to speed the translational process. A key element of success is the development of novel training programs to expose POCT developers and users to the clinical and process issues related to device development, validation and commercialization. CAPCaT will develop and lead innovative teaching programs and leverage complementary educational opportunities to provide a comprehensive training and dissemination plan for the POCT development community. Highlights of this program will include a short-course modeled on the NSF/NIH I-Corps program, a dynamic educational series on the clinical and process elements of POCT development, and an annual stakeholder showcase day. The knowledge generated through these programs will, in turn, be used to inform other core activities of CAPCaT.
