Five Innovative Teams Set to Transform Pain Measurement Technology
BALTIMORE - iSportsWire -- The MatchPlay Group, in collaboration with the OpenTreatments Foundation, proudly unveils the commencement of its MatchPlay Challenge. This pioneering program seeks to reinvent the way pain is measured, particularly benefiting those with limited ability to communicate their pain.
Chronic pain affects 20% of adults worldwide, affecting quality of life and productivity. Opioids have been the primary treatment for acute pain, but misuse, addiction, and overdose have led to a public health crisis. The challenge is to address this need by shifting towards non-pharmacological and multimodal approaches, driven by advancements in medical technology, digital health, and wearable devices.
Spanning three months, the MatchPlay Challenge is a beacon of innovation, focusing initially on the development of technologies for accurate pain assessment. It provides participants with access to crucial resources, mentorship, and training in both product development and business strategy.
