<p>In the&nbsp;<a href="http://www.mspi.se/design-thinking/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Design Thinking</a>&nbsp;course, students from the&nbsp;<a href="http://www.mspi.se/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MSPI-program&nbsp;</a>and the Mechanical Engineering MSc program have explored issues relating to diagnosis and treatment of Lymphedema. Based on need analysis, ideation, and a prototyping approach, the students have developed concepts for how to address these issues, focusing on merging user desirability, with feasibility and viability from a business perspective.</p>



<p>The project has been initiated by and performed in collaboration with&nbsp;<a href="http://www.bluesciencepark.se/?lang=en" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Blue Science Park</a>&nbsp;and the&nbsp;<a href="http://www.sicaht.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">SICAHT</a>project. Lymphedema disease provides&nbsp;one of the opportunities for innovation within the healthcare sector, which&nbsp;has been identified in an extensive mapping of needs that are yet to be fulfilled to a satisfactory level, given opportunities that comes with modern technologies and E-health.</p>



<p>Lymphedema is an illness that frequently affects people who has gone through cancer treatments. It is important to discover and begin effective treatment already in the early stages to manage the most severe effects of the illness. Current methods rely to a great extent on access to scarce resources within the healthcare system. Therefore, the students have investigated if there are opportunities to make identification and treatment more independent and effortless for users to manage on their own.</p>



<p>Several projects within &#8220;Lymphedema area&#8221; was explored, see all info below.</p>

<p><strong>Institutionen för Maskinteknik vid BTH har en stark forskningsprofil inom teknisk produktutveckling; hållbar produktinnovation, främst med koppling till områden som </strong><strong>flyg, rymd, fordon, transport samt tillverkande industri i allmänhet. Sedan ett år tillbaka har profilen utökats till att även innefatta tillämpningar inom humanitär innovation.</strong> </p>

<p>Professor Tobias Larsson är styrelsemedlem i <a href="http://www.rkh.se/">Röda Korsets Högskola</a> (RKH) som utbildar sjuksköterskor med kompetens och beredskap för globalt arbete samt bidrar till sjukvårdens utveckling i Sverige. Inom RKH bedrivs även forskning som passar bra med Maskintekniks profil, speciellt inom tematiska området &#8220;Hälsa och teknisk utveckling&#8221; (<a href="http://www.rkh.se/sv/forskning/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://www.rkh.se/sv/forskning/</a>). Tobias historik med flertalet projekt inom Tillämpad Hälsoteknik, och <a href="http://www.designforwellbeing.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Design for Wellbeing</a> bidrar även till att humanitär innovation är en naturlig utveckling. Även Dr. Christian Johansson har erfarenhet från det närliggande Design for Wellbeing-området, bland annat genom deltagande i ett projekt om hälsoövervakning på distans, tillsammans med Intel.<br></p>

<p>Andreas Larsson, docent i Maskinteknik och innovationsledare, delar sin tid mellan BTH och Läkare Utan Gränsers innovationsenhet (<a href="http://innovation.lakareutangranser.se/">MSF Sweden Innovation Unit</a>), där han leder och deltar i såväl konkreta produkt- och tjänsteutvecklingsprojekt som processutvecklingprojekt med syfte att utveckla en mer innovativ kultur inom en av världens största medicinska humanitära organisationer. Exempelvis är Andreas projektledare för utvecklingen av en s k autoklav, vilket i princip är en ångkokare som med hjälp av upphettad vattenånga förbättrar steriliseringen av kirurgiska instrument och textilier för att minska risken för infektioner. Läs mer om Andreas och hans kollegors arbete inom innovationsenheten i Läkare Utan Gränsers magasin <a href="https://lakareutangranser.se/sites/default/files/media/direkt1_16_webb_uppslag.pdf">Direkt #1 2016 (s.20-23)</a>. Enheten har även bidragit till en ny bok som publiceras av Nesta på temat innovation och internationell utveckling, ladda ner boken här: <a href="http://www.nesta.org.uk/sites/default/files/innovation_in_international_development.pdf">Innovation in International Development: Navigating the Paths and Pitfalls (s. 83-96)</a>.</p>



<p>Tillämpad hälsoteknik, Design for Wellbeing och humanitär innovation är tydliga exempel på innovationsområden vid BTH där människans välbefinnande står i fokus.</p>



<p>Som student innebär detta att du kommer att kunna använda dina kunskaper i projekt med humanitär innovation som fokus! Forskningsmässigt är det ett intressant och utmanande område att tillämpa vår forskning inom.</p>
