1. HealthXL Hacks
2. Hack Aging, a hackathon by HealthXL in Melbourne
WHATA short focused event where, over the course of weekend, programmers and developers combine with relevant stakeholders e.g. clinicians, care providers, patients to build prototypes to address set challenges.
A HealthXL Hack aims to bring together our network of partners, start-up companies and entrepreneurs to work on proposed challenges set in collaboration with the leading clinical provider.
WHYInnovation requires collaboration. The event brings together an exciting mix of participants, relevant subject matter experts, mentors etc. over the course of a weekend to work on solutions to real healthcare problem. The process is designed to build networks for future collaborations, rapidly ideate on potential solutions and offer opportunities to test the winning solution in cohorts of relevant patients.THE PARTICIPANTS
Experienced, like-minded people, with different backgrounds, eager to hack and collaborate AND early stage companies
THE JUDGES AND MENTORS
Global digital health thought leaders will be mentoring the teams from across the network
THE SOLUTIONS
To enable the participants to create intuitive, delightful and empathic solutions, we’ve design the briefs with a human-centred design to address end user problems.
Introducing HealthXL Hacks
1. Silo Busting: They Unite Diverse Stakeholders
The healthcare industry has been notoriously siloed, a challenge which is felt now more than ever as experts agree that system-wide collaboration is needed. Healthcare-focused hackathons have become a global phenomena bringing together highly diverse stakeholders across the world.
2. Rapid Results: They Produce Tangible Outcomes for Participants
Working in such highly cross-functional teams facilitates iterative conception and testing of ideas—and eventual development into more complete functional prototypes, all of which offer immediate benefits to innovators.
3. Create Runway: They Provide a Petri Dish for Experimentation for Sponsors
One of the biggest results we’ve seen from hackathons is the benefits they provide to the host organization’s own ability to breed a culture and mindset of innovation - from opening up their data sets, learning from failure, and understanding the potential and challenges that new technologies bring.
Hack’s can be a useful tool to build trust and understanding

Hack AgingHackathon by HealthXL
July, 10th – 12th, Melbourne
The age structure of the world’s population is shifting, with a projection for close to 20% of the population over 80 yrs by 2050.
For this hackathon we focused on some of the most important health concerns
• Dementia
• Malnutrition
• Social isolation & physical activity
What’s the problem?
Meet our older adult personas Living with dementia Affected by social
isolationAt risk of malnutrition
Anne has lived with dementia for the past 8 years. Supported by her husband Jim and community care
workers, Anne has remained living at
home.
Ted was diagnosed with
Alzheimer’s disease in 2012. As his disease
worsens he relies more and more on his wife Pippa to remember daily tasks, important dates and even
family members.
Julie lives in a rural community, where
she is delivered her meals on wheels
dinner daily. She is no longer able to go
to the shops to purchase her
groceries and family and care workers are worried about her daily calorie
intake.
Tony is a widower, living alone for the
past number of years. Tony’s
community care team, including his
dietician is concerned with
Tony’s daily calorie intake. A problem if it continues could
lead to malnutrition and complications with Tony’s health
in general.
Illias was born in Greece and came to Australia as a young
child. Having worked all his life,
Illias is finding retirement difficult, struggling to fill his
days and find a sense of purpose.
Brenda lives on her own in a retirement village. It is quite a distance from her family and Breda is finding it difficult
to build a new social circle and find activities that
interest her.

Challenges set to help our seniors
Living with dementia Affected by social isolation
At risk of malnutrition
Design a solution that:• Connects Anne with family and care
providers.• Accompanies Anne as she moves
through her day ensuring Anne remains in a safe environment.
• Stores memories and daily tasks for Ted and enables others to learn more about his life story.
Design a solution that:• Connects Brenda with her
community to build a welcoming atmosphere where she would be comfortable to physically attend.
• Connect Brenda to a wider community where she can share conversations and interactions on her hobbies and passions
• Gets Illias more involved in his local community
• A mechanism by which Illias can connect with a wider community and utilize his professional experience.
Design a solution that:• That is capable of engaging with
the Julie’s living environment and understanding if the meals and wheels were delivered and if so eaten.
• Capturing information for carers and family members on Julie’s meals that day - if there is a handover this information is captured and passed from one to the next.
• Interacting between Tony and his dietician Helen so she can easily monitor his weight remotely and alert her to trends indicating malnutrition.

TelexHealth allows patients to confidentially and verbally share key information about their health - such as weight, blood sugar, blood pressure - via an automated telephone service.
The data is digitally recorded, analyzed and tracked on a dashboard, and can be accessed via a mobile application by the patient, their doctor, family or carer.

There is currently no easy way to objectively measure whether someone is a safe driver – and as a result, licenses are often revoked even when the driver is still fit to drive. Olive is a smart dash cam for elderly drivers. Olive will detect the response time of drivers and pick up near misses. With Olive we can ensure that elderly drivers can maintain their independence for as long as possible whilst ensuring they are still safe on the roads.
Heston is a personalize meal creation and food delivery service. To learn about people’s nutritional requirements, Heston uses your biometrics, medical history and weight goals combined with individualized food preferences (including allergies), preferred meal sizes, location and budget. Powered by IBM Watson, Heston uses features including trade-off analytics and personality insights to create the ideal meal plan. The food required to prepare these meals is supplied in the form of a shopping list and can be ordered and delivered to the person’s door.

Once matched, members of the system are able to communicate via their preferred medium (phone, sms, email, snail mail).
Opaque Multimedia and FriendsProvides an augmented reality that uses image processing and feature extraction to simulate effects of dementia.It really communicates the importance of a dementia friendly environment through experiential learning
Guardians of the galaThe Gala system takes unstructured text from a wide variety of clinical sources and categorizes it using Watson Cognitive Computing into the main areas they saw as been important to dementia decision-making: Medical, Nutrition, Sleep, Environment, Activity, Behaviors, Family, Social and Mood.
Full Story is an information storage system which chronicles personal, clinical and behavioral information on an elderly person in order to allow care and medical facilities to provide a more personalized and complete care experience. The personal information system is first set up by the elderly person or a carer who knows them well. This solution allows for easy expansion to automatic monitoring devices.
Team Aegis developed a platform that aims to close the time between carers seeking information and finding actually finding the information they are looking for. This platform also has the capability to connect care givers and family to various sources of information
Connect2Fit a team combined of students from RMIT and an exercise physiologist addressed the problem of social isolation and physical inactivity in older adults. They created a beautiful avatar platform through which the instructor of the class can interact with the participants of the class. It provided functionality where by the seniors could under take the class in their homes and interact with each other via text and chat.
Carers of people with dementia consistently express that managing agitated behaviors of people with dementia is the most challenging aspect of dementia care. The Ambient room aims to improve this experience by monitoring the stress levels of a person with dementia by capturing heart rate variability data and automatically modulating the environment to make it more calming. This closed loop sensor system is modular can be used by activating any combination of lighting, music/sounds, digital displays and aromatherapy.
Quanticare: The Footprints Walking FrameThe Footprints walking frame is a gait aid with a integrated sensor system which measures how well an elderly person walks to prevent falls. Health care professionals will be empowered to deliver interventions based on the deterioration of gait as well as measure the effectiveness of those interventions. The data can also be used to engage the elderly person in self-management of their mobility challenges by giving them feedback about walking quality and assistance in setting and tracking mobility goals.
