Abstract: | What has been developed during this assignment is a design and an implementation plan of a system capable of measuring and analysing stool to provide users with an indication of their health conditions. To develop such a solution, the Dutch healthcare system has been described including stakeholders and their relationships. Four entry points to the Dutch consumer healthcare market have been defined, and a four phased implementation trajectory had been developed moving from the less resource-demanding prototype phase, to a phase in which a consumer product configuration will be developed, to the use of this product as a medical device and therefore needing a clinical validation, and the possible application of the device as an alternative to the current national CRC screening in the Netherlands. |
