A European consortium is working on a project aimed at developing a system that will allow doctors to automatically regulate guidelines for individual treatment for Parkinson’s disease.
The work is being undertaken as part of the Home-based Empowered Living for Parkinson’s Disease (HELP) initiative, which is funded by the European Union’s (EU’s) Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) Joint Programme.
The aim of the pproject is to design a control system for a subcutaneous infusion pump that administers the exact drug dose required by patients according to their level of activity. The researchers hope that this will prevent blockages and the adverse effects of medication overdoses. The system will determine the dose required on the basis of the patient’s degree of mobility.
