How digital therapies can transform your health. Traditional health
care has a new ally. Some patients with sleep disorders, back pain,
and diabetes are now being prescribed app-based treatment instead
of drugs. Algorithms are helping cancer patients manage their
symptoms, and video games are improving the attention span of
children diagnosed with ADHD. A new class of medicine called
digital therapeutics (DTx) is gaining traction and transforming the
way patients engage with the health care system. In Medicine
without Meds, Dean Ho, Yoann Sapanel, and Agata Blasiak explore the
exciting potential for these digital therapies to transform patient
care. Ho, Sapanel, and Blasiak share their insights on how these
therapies can deliver value beyond the technology, address the
challenges of implementation in existing health care models, and
revolutionize care delivery. These clinicians, researchers,
engineers, patients, start-up founders, and corporate executives
are at the forefront of designing and building tomorrow's DTx. They
explain what DTx represents, how it differs from other digital
health solutions, and how these tools can be conceptualized,
created, and brought to market. Throughout, case studies from
leading DTx organization such as Akili Interactive, MedRhythms, and
Welldoc illuminate best practices in product development, issues to
consider, and pitfalls to avoid. These essays, along with a
foreword by D. A. Wallach and Dr. Eddie Martucci's outlook on the
future of DTx, present the exciting potential for DTx to reimagine
health care for all.
