Saninudge was founded in 2015 by Theis Jensen and Morten Egholm, two Technical University of Denmark graduates. With their backgrounds in science, engineering, and design, Theis and Morten took on the challenge of Hospital-Acquired Infections by applying the principles of nudging to hand hygiene. Saninudge is a simple and affordable hand-hygiene management system. We provide hospital staff with a hospital-wide sensor network that can track healthcare workers, patients and guests hand hygiene compliance while transmitting usage data wirelessly to our web-based application. Lack of hand sanitation is the biggest driver of hospital-acquired infections, which result in over 37,000 deaths per year as well as €5 billion in additional costs to the European healthcare system. Our solution results in a reduction in costs and preventable deaths for hospitals, while freing up beds so more patients can be treated. We bring transparency and accountability to hand hygiene, driving behavior change and lowering infection rates.

What do you think of Saninudge?

A HUGE part of what early stage companies, and even late stage ones, need and get on MedStartr is honest feedback from actual patients, clinicians, hospital leaders and industry insiders. It is very easy to get tunnel vision as a founder. Please tell the team that runs this company what you think.

Clinical Benefit Potential

The potential for a project to have a large and significant impact on medical care, treatment, or prevention.

Feasibility

The likelihood that this will provide benefit for patients / care givers and that the founders can execute on their vision and plan.

Innovativeness

The distinguishing features, concept, or technology that differentiates the entry compared to others that already exist and are in widespread use.

Fundability

The reviewers' beliefs that the idea is fundable or can make it to sustainability without outside investment.

Scalability

Some great ideas are destined to failure because they are too complex or too expensive. The reviewer should consider the likelihood that a project as explained, or perhaps with some tweaks, could possibly become a worldwide solution within a reasonable time frame.

Presentation Quality

How well the team presented the idea.
