    Description

    The Centre for Technology Adoption for Aging in the North (CTAAN) at UNBC is spearheading a groundbreaking initiative to introduce and validate cutting-edge healthcare technologies in the region.

    With a focus on improving patient outcomes and promoting equity in treatment, CTAAN is committed to revolutionizing wound care.
    Traditionally, healthcare education, wound care education, and screening tools have primarily catered to individuals with lighter skin tones.

    Recognizing this issue, CTAAN is determined to address it by leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to standardize treatment and ensure better patient outcomes regardless of skin color.

    Among the major challenges in wound care is the prevalence of diabetes wounds, which account for 80% of major amputations in Indigenous populations.

    Limited accessibility and unequal access to remote wound care services have exacerbated the problem.

    CTAAN aims to bridge this gap by deploying new technology tools that offer advanced wound evaluations, reduce variability in treatment approaches, and accurately identify risks.

    As part of its commitment to this cause, Digital, Canada's Global Innovation Cluster for digital technologies, has announced a co-investment with Swift Medical, a renowned global leader in digital wound care.

    This partnership aims to revolutionize patient care by leveraging three pioneering technology tools.

    The deployment of these tools will facilitate better wound evaluations, ensure standardized treatment approaches, and enable more accurate risk assessment.

    The project includes collaboration with the National Research Council, with CTAAN serving as a key validation partner.

    Richard McAloney, the Centre's director, emphasizes the potential impact of this research on improving treatment accessibility and patient outcomes in northern and rural communities.

    CTAAN's unique position allows it to introduce these innovative technologies effectively, fostering positive change in the region.
    CTAAN's academic director, Dr.

    Shannon Freeman, highlights the Center's expertise in developing connections, partnerships, and processes that facilitate the testing, piloting, adaptation, and implementation of new technologies in real-world settings throughout rural and northern B.These capabilities position CTAAN as a key driver of change in healthcare delivery.

    Nadia Shaikh-Naeem, the Vice President of Programs at Digital, expresses enthusiasm for this venture, building on their continued investments in applied AI.

    With the partnerships formed within the Advanced AI Wound Care Network, Swift Medical's enhanced wound care solution can be deployed within northern, rural, and Indigenous communities.

    Collaborating with institutions such as the University of Northern British Columbia's Centre for Technology Adoption for Aging in the North, Brightshores Health System, and Giishkaandago'Ikwe Health Services, this partnership exemplifies how Canada can enhance equitable access and improve health outcomes for all Canadians through AI adoption.
