Summary
Clinicians are lacking timely and sensitive data to detect treatment failure in MS. We will create a paradigm shift in MS care by developing an electronic patient-centred health care system, ‘InforMS’, that becomes a “one-stop-shop” management system which empowers and activates people with MS to collect invaluable time-sensitive monitoring data. We will test InforMS on around 3,000 people with MS to measure uptake and ensure it supports health improvements and changes to clinical practice.
Delivering Precision Diagnosis To Patients With Mitochondrial Disease: Using Digital Technologies To Enhance The Delivery Pathway To Provide An Accurate Genetic Diagnosis For Patients With Mitochondrial Disease

Funding Amount
$1,273,553.00
Summary
Mitochondrial disease (MD) is the most common inherited metabolic condition. MD can be diagnosed by using whole genome sequencing (WGS) and enables treatment and accurate family planning. We will create a web-base platform to support the diagnosis and treatment of patients with or suspected to have MD. Using a custom-built web-based platform, telemedicine and automated software we will integrate care by primary care givers and MD experts to deliver a precise genetic diagnosis to our MD patients.
