Clinical Validation

<p>We have&nbsp;designed two 6-month&nbsp;clinical pilots as focused:</p> <ol> <li><strong>Project Apaxis: </strong>A proejct to screen, detect, refer and treat patient at risk of cardiovascular disease using remote ECG monitoring technology and interpretation systems. We have signed experssions of interest with an Indian company and leader in remote ECG monitoring working with GE Healthcare, and have also signed an agreement to serve as imaging partner for a leading cardiology practice in Lagos.&nbsp;</li> <li><strong>Project Raphael: </strong>A proejct to screen, detect, refer and treat patients with cancer (breast, cervical, colon and prostate). Here too we have signed a partnership to work with a local cancer clinic in Lagos that currently focused in chemotherapy and surgery and has a strategic partnership with a leading cancer institute in New York State, US.</li> </ol> <p>In both cases, our local partners (cardiology and cancer clinics)&nbsp;need to significantly improve their medical diagnostic&nbsp;capabilities to be able to provide greater quality care to a larger portion of the population and at a far more afforadble price.&nbsp;</p> <p>At the end of both pilots, we intend to have screened 3,000 patients (1500 each) and will publish the outcomes of the trials through white papers and relevant medical journals. This outcome data will be critical in our efforts seek a utility patent and more important, further strengthen our position as a market differentiator, providing QUALITY and AFFORDABLE care to all Africans in both the private and public sector.</p>

What do you think of Yako Medical Africa, Limited?

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.
