Innovation in Paediatric Care is revolutionising the way we approach child health. Advancements in technology, medicine, and healthcare delivery are transforming the landscape of paediatrics, leading to improved patient outcomes, enhanced quality of life, and reduced healthcare costs. In this studio, we develop solutions related, but not limited to the following areas.

• Digital Health: telehealth, wearable devices, and AI-powered tools are enhancing accessibility, remote monitoring, and early intervention.
• Therapies: therapies that offer recovery for various clinical conditions.
• Robotics and Automation: robotic-assisted treatments and automated systems are improving precision and efficiency at the clinical level.

By embracing these innovations, we can create a future where every child has access to the best possible care, regardless of their geographic location or socioeconomic status. Examples from past year include pre-crawler rehabilitation device for infants with congenital conditions, training of insertion of nasogastric tube to infants, pacifier holder for infants with cleft lip/palate and others.
