Feeding plate for a newborn with Cleft Palate.pptxSatvikaPrasad
A feeding plate is a prosthetic device used for newborns with a cleft palate to assist in feeding and improve nutrition intake. From a prosthodontic perspective, this plate acts as a barrier between the oral and nasal cavities, facilitating effective sucking and swallowing by providing a more normal anatomical structure. It helps to prevent milk from entering the nasal passage, thereby reducing the risk of aspiration and enhancing the infant's ability to feed efficiently. The feeding plate also aids in the development of the oral muscles and can contribute to better growth and weight gain. Its custom fabrication and proper fitting by a prosthodontist are crucial for ensuring comfort and functionality, as well as for minimizing potential complications. Early intervention with a feeding plate can significantly improve the quality of life for both the infant and the parents.

expected to continue increasing in all the Nordic capitals.
Together, the five cities represent a substantial and
rapidly growing market.
The cities have recognised the need for innovation and
collaboration across the Nordic region and have
committed both time and resources to make it happen.
As organisers of the Nordic Independent Living
Challenge, they will host projects and workshops as well
as provide mentors, knowledge and test beds for end
user testing.

13. Hi, my name is Sonja.
I enjoy having my calendar full. I always have a lot of events to
look forward too. I like to meet people and keep myself up-to-date
on what happens in the world.
I keep myself fit and busy. I believe people with no hobbies or
activities age more quickly.
Last year I fell on my bike and now I cannot get around like I was
used to…
THE FRAIL ELDERLY
14. THE FRAIL ELDERLY
Today, elderly people represent 25 % of the entire
Nordic adult population. This number will rise to
more than 40 % in 2030 and 45 % in 2050, meaning
there will soon be a dramatic increase of people in
need of solutions that can increase their quality of
life and help them be able to keep living
independently.
We see the elderly as great resources
in the ideation process of this
competition.
The elderly end users need solutions that can increase
their quality of life. This could be in areas like:
Moving
around
Maintaining
an active
mind
Using
technology
Staying in
touch
Finding the
way
Staying in
shape
15. Hi, I am Rasmus!
When I was little, I had a brain tumour which was operated. I have
difficulties in remembering and focusing on things.
I think everybody needs to be good at something. Some of us just
need help to get there.
When other people make solutions for me, I get confused. But if I
make my own systems, I understand them.
Help should be something that you choose. Not something that is
enforced upon you.
THE DISABLED
16. THE DISABLED
Between 13 and 21% of the Nordic adult population
report that they have some kind of disability.
Nordic disabled are typically advanced users and
critical consumers. They possess considerable
knowledge and creativity, making them a valuable
resource in the development of new and
innovative solutions.
The disabled end users need solutions that can help them
stay active in many ways. This could be in areas like:
Moving
around
Customising
solutions
Using
technology
Staying in
touch
Staying in
shape
17. There will be an increasing need for
welfare solutions of good quality for
the elderly and disabled.
We need to develop solutions that
help improve welfare services and
at the same time make the job
easier and more efficient for care
professionals. This could be in areas
like:
Relatives will to a greater extent
take part in caring for their elderly
and disabled, but at the same time
they have their own lives to run.
There will be an increasing demand
for solutions that can handle issues
like:
CARE PROFESSIONALS AND RELATIVES
Handling
information
Keeping in
touch
Organising
lives
Handling
information
Building
relationships
Improving
working
environment
19. Hello, I am Thorfinn!
I am head of innovation and business development in a
multinational company developing household appliances and
other everyday technologies.
We have initiated a strategic project in the area of health care
solutions and are looking for ways to develop new solutions in
close collaboration with health care providers and end users.
This competition is a great opportunity for us to experiment in an
advanced and rapidly growing market – and collaborate with
some inspiring entrepreneurs.

21. Hi there, I am Annukka!
I am a design student at the final year of university. Together with
some friends, I have recently started a company developing
software and simple technology solutions for the elderly. We share
an interest in increasing the quality of life for the elderly, and
together we possess the technology and design skills to be able to
develop new and interesting prototypes.
We do, however, need more knowledge about and access to real-
life users, and we are looking for partners for funding and help to
take our solutions to market.
We see the competition as a great opportunity to take our ideas to
the next level and to kick-start our company.

I have a spinal cord injury
which means I cannot move
my legs at all and my arms
only a little bit, so I need to
consider accessibility in a
different way than many
others.
I have a lot of ideas for new
products and services for
disabled people like me,
and I really hope I can find
some people to work with
in this competition.

I am a researcher and lecturer at a technological university. I have
been working with robotics for many years and my main research
interest is welfare technologies.
I believe that I can bring a lot of knowledge and experience to the

innovation process.
I also see it as a good opportunity for my students to work with
real-life projects – especially if we can team up with people from
companies and other universities.
