Allergy testing & diagnosis with S.P.A.T. - Skin Prick Automated Test

About us

Hippo DX is a MedTech start-up introducing a state-of-the-art medical device, S.P.A.T. (Skin Prick Automated Test) for automated allergy testing. The S.P.A.T. device executes 12 equal pricks simultaneously in 20 seconds. It images the pricked spots 15 minutes after pricking, offering standardised and digital results for seamless record-keeping. Automating skin prick test accounts for a decrease in result variability and enable allergy testing efficiently. It is faster and requires less hands-on time or administration, reducing the workload for healthcare personnel and freeing up time for patient care. As allergy test results are digitally processed and stored, S.P.A.T. contributes to a more global, comprehensive understanding of allergies through deep scientific insights.

    𝗦𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘃𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗲 𝗽𝗶𝗹𝗼𝘁 𝗺𝗲𝘁 𝗵𝗲𝘁 𝗵𝘂𝗶𝗱𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗸𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗮𝘁 𝗦.𝗣.𝗔.𝗧. 𝗯𝗶𝗷 𝗗𝗖 𝗞𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗲𝗸𝗲𝗻 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗻! Bij een huidpriktest, ook wel een krasjestest genoemd, brengen we druppeltjes testvloeistof met een klein naaldje aan in de bovenste laag van de huid van de patiënt om te achterhalen of er een allergische reactie optreedt. Sinds 19 november voeren onze collega’s bij DC Klinieken Groningen deze huidpriktesten uit met behulp van de innovatieve S.P.A.T.-machine. Dit apparaat is ontworpen om huidpriktesten eenvoudiger en efficiënter te maken en is ontwikkeld door het Belgische bedrijf Hippo Dx. In tegenstelling tot de traditionele methode, waarbij elk allergeen afzonderlijk wordt getest, kan de S.P.A.T. in één keer maximaal 12 allergenen aanbrengen. Met behulp van geavanceerde AI-software wordt vervolgens nauwkeurig de grootte van de allergische reactie (kwaddel) gemeten. Dit betekent dat doktersassistenten niet meer handmatig hoeven op te meten, maar enkel een controle hoeven uit te voeren. Deze werkwijze bespaart tijd en verhoogt mogelijk de nauwkeurigheid van de testresultaten. Ook van onze patiënten ontvangen we positieve signalen. Veel patiënten ervaren de S.P.A.T.-methode als minder pijnlijk dan de traditionele aanpak, wat bijdraagt aan een betere beleving van de behandeling. 💬Medisch manager allergologie Richard Oei benadrukt: “Dit is een positieve ontwikkeling. Huidtesten werden al decennialang op dezelfde intensieve manier uitgevoerd. Met deze innovatie kunnen we efficiënter werken, terwijl de kwaliteit gewaarborgd blijft.” Met de introductie van de S.P.A.T.-machine zetten we een belangrijke stap in de richting van verdere digitalisering en innovatie in de zorg. Zo blijven we ons inzetten voor efficiëntere en patiëntvriendelijke behandelmethoden. #innovatie #huidpriktest #allergologie

  • A new study from Imperial College London shows the number of people with food allergies in the UK has more than doubled since 2008. Despite this increase, many at-risk individuals still lack access to critical treatments. 💡 Key findings: ✅ Highest prevalence in children under 5 (4%) ✅ Food allergy rates grew from 0.4% to 1.1% (2008–2018) ✅ Only 10% of those with severe allergies have seen a specialist More support is needed to help healthcare professionals and patients detect and manage food allergies effectively. #FoodAllergy #AllergyTesting #AllergyTreatment
