EL PROYECTO

¿Por qué TeNDER?

Sólo en Europa, la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) estima que más de 10 millones de personas viven con demencia, y que para 2030 estas cifras probablemente se duplicarán. La prevalencia de la Enfermedad de Parkinson también está destinada a aumentar, según el Consejo Europeo del Cerebro, con más de 1,2 millones de pacientes que viven actualmente en Europa. La OMS también alerta de que las enfermedades cardiovasculares son una de las principales causas de muerte prematura y discapacidad en Europa y en todo el mundo. 

affecTive basEd iNtegrateD carE for betteR Quality of Life (TeNDER) es un proyecto multisectorial financiado por Horizonte 2020, el Programa Marco de Investigación e Innovación de la UE. Desde finales de 2019 hasta finales de 2022, TeNDER desarrollará un modelo de atención integral con el objetivo de gestionar la multimorbilidad en pacientes con Alzheimer (y otras formas de demencia), párkinson y/o enfermedades cardiovasculares.

El Proyecto

¿Cómo funcionará TeNDER?

Combinando tecnologías fáciles de usar y una considerable experiencia en investigación, nuestro proyecto pretende ayudar a mejorar la calidad de vida de los pacientes y de quienes los rodean. Además, probará formas de facilitar la comunicación entre los diferentes proveedores de salud y atención médica que tratan a pacientes con multimorbilidades.

Con este fin, TeNDER llevará a cabo 5 pruebas piloto a gran escala dirigidas a pacientes con demencia, enfermedades cardiovasculares y/o enfermedad de Párkinson. En cada entorno piloto (es decir, en los cuidados agudos en el hospital, en casa y en las residencias de día y a tiempo completo), los pacientes serán monitorizados utilizando sensores, cámaras que capturan el movimiento, tecnología de reconocimiento afectivo y muñequeras que registran los signos vitales básicos, etc. Los expertos técnicos, legales y éticos de TeNDER se asegurarán de que todos los datos personales estén protegidos según la Regulación General de Protección de Datos (GDPR) y que nuestro enfoque cumpla con rigurosas directrices éticas.
