Ten learnings on thinking small for big impact Wolff Olins
When we take on big challenges, like innovation, it’s tempting to jump to big
solutions. But sometimes, it’s the small things that matter most.
Small is in the detail. And small often requires big thought. But when
creating sustainable systems that support change there is power in small.
Here are ten (tiny) lessons we’ve learned at Wolff Olins
where thinking small can have a big impact.
VALUE PROPOSITION ADDRESSING CUSTOMER OUTCOMESAndré Harrell
The “VALUE PROPOSITION”
A business or marketing statement that summarizes why a consumer should buy a product or use a service. This statement should convince a potential consumer that one particular product or service will add more value or better solve a problem than other similar offerings. The value proposition is basically marketing’s “internal affairs”, the checks and balances that hold the corporation accountable to promised customer value. Yet the “Value Prop” is probably the most misunderstood product framing strategy used today.
Inside this session, you will find all about entrepreneurship, from the basics to learning practical and innovative methods with getting to know an intriguing story.
We’re excited to share a data-driven look at what makes successful founders. We’ve surveyed VCs and distilled characteristics that differentiate successful founders from not so successful ones. What’s your founder superpower? #BasisForSuccess
Extended talk about disruption in healthcare in general and the role played by technology (mainly 'omics') in this disruption. It is expected that this disruption will result in better care, better processes and better productivity in the already overwhelmed health systems.
Precision medicine and personalised medicine are also enablers for the organisational changes towards solution shops or Added Value Processes cliniques. This work is based on Clayton Christensen's 'The Innovator's Prescription'.

OEMs and suppliers see promise in the ability of manufacturing and software to expand the use of custom implants in orthopaedics. Multiple companies are focused on the custom market. This session provides the surgeon perspective on these devices. What are the benefits? When should and shouldn't they be used? Will the market take off?
Orthopaedic Care Shifts to Outpatient and Urgent Care ClinicsApril Bright
The Shift in Care Delivery - As the healthcare delivery system evolves, hospitals may no longer be the first stop for patients seeking orthopaedic care. This is evidenced by the growing trend of surgeons moving to the outpatient setting, as patients seek less invasive procedures. Orthopaedic urgent care centers have also emerged as a viable alternative, due to their ability to address price concerns in the industry by reducing time and overhead costs for both providers and patients.
Attendees gain more insight into this shift, and learn how it will affect demands on manufacturers from a product design and delivery standpoint.
What Is It? Product Development vs. Product Management April Bright
This session will focus on the respective roles and responsibilities of the Product Manager vs. the Development Engineer from a product’s inception through its lifecycle maintenance. Attendees will learn how to leverage the cross-functional product team to deliver results, business vs. technical aspects of product development, putting the customer first and navigating the organization in order to get things done.
We know that the past is our foundation for future developments. We must build upon it so that we too can act as a stable foundation for future generations. One must be aware of the way surgeons in the past have contributed to Orthopaedics.

Intermittent fasting and metabolic syndromefathi neana
Metabolic syndrome reached an epidemic
No Cure by Insulin, Drugs, Low fat diet
Can be cured by Bariatric surgery, Intermittent fasting, Very low carb diet
Globally 14.2 million people - 30-69 years old die / year from the modern Lifestyle Diseases.These diseases emerged as bigger killers than infectious or hereditary ones. Orthopaedic complaints accounts for the epidemic proportions (cases of low back ache, joint disorders, degenerative diseases that we find in our clinics and also around us). Lack of proper sleep and the continuous exposure to Blue light from television, PC and laptop screens are of the sources of the worst blue lights one can be exposed to and by leaving a television set or laptop screen on during the night will suppress melatonin production significantly. Melatonin is distributed widely in nature; it acts as a photoperiod messenger molecule, transducing photoperiod changes to various cyclic function (reproduction, sleep-wake rhythms). Melatonin is very important antioxidant . Melatonin influences various cell mechanisms . We have to know how to Improve and Protect our Melatonin Production by Improving our sleep hygiene.
Rhabdomyolysis is potentially life-threatening syndrome due to breakdown of skeletal muscle fibers
with leakage of muscle contents into the circulation, The outcome varies depending on the extent of kidney damage, To avoid this problem Keep yourself always hydrated well supplemented with electrolytes & carbohydrates. Avoid drugs, alcohol, excessive heat & over-exercising,
The New Lifestyle diseases is a Puzzle searching for an answer. These diseases emerged as bigger killers than infectious or hereditary diseases. Our view should be global as our body is a one unit containing multiple systems and organs. What is true is that our life style have been changed. We are cornered and surrounded by different kinds of pollutants. The price of our non biological inflammatory life style is
1- A state of chronic low grade inflammation which plays a role in all major diseases including musculoskeletal manifestations
2- Mitochondrial dysfunction, which is root cause of chronic diseases including cancer, nearly all chronic diseases and accelerated aging
The big question is what causes Mitochondrial dysfunction?? The aim of this presentation is to find an answer to this question

Today’s healthcare market provides ample challenges for businesses: increasing competition and commoditization, significant merger and acquisition (M&A) activity, and uncertainty with regulatory and government oversight. Healthcare companies have more than doctors to win over — they have to reach patients, providers, and payers too. The pressure is not on companies to perform — it’s on the brands.

India Clinical Trials Market: Industry Size and Growth Trends [2030] Analyzed...Kumar Satyam
According to TechSci Research report, "India Clinical Trials Market- By Region, Competition, Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F," the India Clinical Trials Market was valued at USD 2.05 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.64% through 2030. The market is driven by a variety of factors, making India an attractive destination for pharmaceutical companies and researchers. India's vast and diverse patient population, cost-effective operational environment, and a large pool of skilled medical professionals contribute significantly to the market's growth. Additionally, increasing government support in streamlining regulations and the growing prevalence of lifestyle diseases further propel the clinical trials market.
Growing Prevalence of Lifestyle Diseases
The rising incidence of lifestyle diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer is a major trend driving the clinical trials market in India. These conditions necessitate the development and testing of new treatment methods, creating a robust demand for clinical trials. The increasing burden of these diseases highlights the need for innovative therapies and underscores the importance of India as a key player in global clinical research.
Defecation
Normal defecation begins with movement in the left colon, moving stool toward the anus. When stool reaches the rectum, the distention causes relaxation of the internal sphincter and an awareness of the need to defecate. At the time of defecation, the external sphincter relaxes, and abdominal muscles contract, increasing intrarectal pressure and forcing the stool out
The Valsalva maneuver exerts pressure to expel faeces through a voluntary contraction of the abdominal muscles while maintaining forced expiration against a closed airway. Patients with cardiovascular disease, glaucoma, increased intracranial pressure, or a new surgical wound are at greater risk for cardiac dysrhythmias and elevated blood pressure with the Valsalva maneuver and need to avoid straining to pass the stool.
Normal defecation is painless, resulting in passage of soft, formed stool
CONSTIPATION
Constipation is a symptom, not a disease. Improper diet, reduced fluid intake, lack of exercise, and certain medications can cause constipation. For example, patients receiving opiates for pain after surgery often require a stool softener or laxative to prevent constipation. The signs of constipation include infrequent bowel movements (less than every 3 days), difficulty passing stools, excessive straining, inability to defecate at will, and hard feaces
IMPACTION
Fecal impaction results from unrelieved constipation. It is a collection of hardened feces wedged in the rectum that a person cannot expel. In cases of severe impaction the mass extends up into the sigmoid colon.
DIARRHEA
Diarrhea is an increase in the number of stools and the passage of liquid, unformed feces. It is associated with disorders affecting digestion, absorption, and secretion in the GI tract. Intestinal contents pass through the small and large intestine too quickly to allow for the usual absorption of fluid and nutrients. Irritation within the colon results in increased mucus secretion. As a result, feces become watery, and the patient is unable to control the urge to defecate. Normally an anal bag is safe and effective in long-term treatment of patients with fecal incontinence at home, in hospice, or in the hospital. Fecal incontinence is expensive and a potentially dangerous condition in terms of contamination and risk of skin ulceration
HEMORRHOIDS
Hemorrhoids are dilated, engorged veins in the lining of the rectum. They are either external or internal.
FLATULENCE
As gas accumulates in the lumen of the intestines, the bowel wall stretches and distends (flatulence). It is a common cause of abdominal fullness, pain, and cramping. Normally intestinal gas escapes through the mouth (belching) or the anus (passing of flatus)
FECAL INCONTINENCE
Fecal incontinence is the inability to control passage of feces and gas from the anus. Incontinence harms a patient’s body image

Antibiotic Stewardship by Anushri Srivastava.pptxAnushriSrivastav
Stewardship is the act of taking good care of something.
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
WHO launched the Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS) in 2015 to fill knowledge gaps and inform strategies at all levels.
ACCORDING TO apic.org,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
ACCORDING TO pewtrusts.org,
Antibiotic stewardship refers to efforts in doctors’ offices, hospitals, long term care facilities, and other health care settings to ensure that antibiotics are used only when necessary and appropriate
According to WHO,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a systematic approach to educate and support health care professionals to follow evidence-based guidelines for prescribing and administering antimicrobials
In 1996, John McGowan and Dale Gerding first applied the term antimicrobial stewardship, where they suggested a causal association between antimicrobial agent use and resistance. They also focused on the urgency of large-scale controlled trials of antimicrobial-use regulation employing sophisticated epidemiologic methods, molecular typing, and precise resistance mechanism analysis.
Antimicrobial Stewardship(AMS) refers to the optimal selection, dosing, and duration of antimicrobial treatment resulting in the best clinical outcome with minimal side effects to the patients and minimal impact on subsequent resistance.
According to the 2019 report, in the US, more than 2.8 million antibiotic-resistant infections occur each year, and more than 35000 people die. In addition to this, it also mentioned that 223,900 cases of Clostridoides difficile occurred in 2017, of which 12800 people died. The report did not include viruses or parasites

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.

2. When an industry faces disruption, companies often fail to
appreciate quickly enough the nature, extent, and velocity
of the changes taking place.
They bring new business models.
They leverage new technologies.
They are highly disruptive.
WHY? Disruptions start at an industry’s edge, among small
companies that provide specialized value to emerging
customer segments
