Naitive’s Post

💬 Patient voices driving innovation At Naitive, our mission is to enable the early detection and effective management of chronic conditions like osteoporosis, helping people live healthier, longer lives. We are developing AI-enabled technologies that leverage existing data to identify osteoporosis earlier and close the care gaps in today's healthcare systems. Our bone health platform, OsteoSight™, automatically screens X-rays taken for other reasons to detect hidden signs of osteoporosis, enabling clinicians to intervene before fractures occur. This innovation is only possible with input from those who need it most. That's why we are honored to collaborate with the Royal Osteoporosis Society, with whom we have established a steering committee. This committee and its patient volunteers provide valuable input and feedback on our development through a series of regular meetings. They offer essential insights, particularly on how we communicate findings and the real-world impact of our technology. Two of the patient volunteers recently shared with us their thoughts on the project: 👉 Irene Baker, a Patient Volunteer, noted, "Osteoporosis is often diagnosed too late. The work Naitive is doing will potentially help with early diagnosis, meaning measures can be taken before bones are broken and lives are changed. Prevention is a key aim of the NHS and the Royal Osteoporosis Society, and I am pleased to be a representative of lived experience in a project that advances this agenda." 👉 Nic Vine, a Patient Volunteer, commented, "The use of technology to prevent ill health is crucial to the future of the NHS; I am pleased to represent the patient viewpoint in the work on identifying osteoporosis and fracture risk, as a patient advocate with Naitive Technologies and the Royal Osteoporosis Society." Patient feedback is essential to our development process, ensuring that technology like OsteoSight™ has patient benefit at its core. To begin with, the steering committee has been helping us expand OsteoSight™ to detect signals of low bone mineral density from chest and spine X-rays as part of our recently announced @Innovate UK-funded project. "We want to ensure that all decisions are made with the patient's best interest at heart," says Robert Fletcher, Project Lead at Naitive. #HealthcareInnovation #Osteoporosis #AI
