Playing with Protons; How Gamification will Improve Paediatric Cancer Care
This presentation on innovative approaches to enhancing paediatric patient care, with a focus on leveraging technology to inform and support young patients throughout their healthcare journeys.
To kick things off, Stephen Towe will introduce us to Leo Cancer Care's particle therapy machine and how it's poised to contribute to improved cancer treatment for paediatric patients. Stephen will highlight the advancements in cancer care that Leo Cancer Care is pioneering and the impact it will have on young patients facing this challenging diagnosis.
Following that, we'll hear from a clinical expert in the field of paediatric healthcare, who will provide valuable insights into how hospitals can effectively serve paediatric patients. Their expertise will shed light on the unique challenges and opportunities in caring for young patients.
To conclude this presentation, we'll have Dom Raban, CEO of Xploro, share with us a glimpse into Xploro's groundbreaking digital platform. Xploro's platform utilises gamification, personalised experiences, and augmented reality to educate and alleviate anxiety among paediatric patients. Dom will demonstrate how this innovative approach is transforming the paediatric healthcare landscape.
After the presentations, we encourage all attendees to interact with the Xploro platform firsthand. This hands-on experience will provide a deeper understanding of how technology can be harnessed to empower and support young patients throughout their healthcare journeys.
The partnership between Leo Cancer Care and Xploro underscores our shared commitment to ensuring that every child receives the care and support they deserve during their cancer treatment. Together, we strive to make a meaningful difference in the lives of paediatric patients and their families.
