Blinklab Partners with Mental Care Group in Europe to Improve and Accelerate the Diagnostic Evaluation of ADHD

Positive results from the initial, prospective ADHD clinical trial run by BlinkLab and MCG provides a strong foundation for clinical adoption.

BlinkLab Limited (ASX:BB1) (“BlinkLab” or the “Company”), an innovative digital healthcare company developing smartphone-based AI powered neurometric tests to aid in the diagnosis of neurodevelopmental conditions, is pleased to announce a major research and clinical partnership with Mental Care Group (MCG) in The Netherlands.


Highlights

  • Strategic partnership with the fifth largest outpatient mental health care provider in Europe.
  • Partnership formalised following successful outcomes of a pilot study led by Mental Care Group that validated Blinklab’s technology in a clinical setting.
  • Initial prospective study in 184 participants showed that children with ADHD have significantly heightened sensory sensitivity, which can be objectively quantified by measuring the rate and amplitude of sound-evoked eyelid responses using the BlinkLab app.
  • Partnership will accelerate BlinkLab’s path to European and US regulatory approval for ADHD and clinical adoption. Data collected from the current clinical trial will be used as part of a large global ADHD study conducted by BlinkLab.
  • Blinklab and MCG will scale up the rollout and validation of the solution in the coming years to a broader patient group and additional diagnosis.
Smartphone-based digital sensory phenotyping is emerging as a promising aid in the diagnosis of ADHD. BlinkLab has developed an innovative app that administers these tests, using the smartphone’s sensors to capture precise neurometric data. As part of the agreement MCG is anticipating to integrate the BlinkLab app into their processes for ADHD diagnosis. By analysing the nuanced behavioural and physiological responses collected via the app, BlinkLab will aim to identify ADHD characteristics, potentially offering patients a more rapid, accessible and objective assessment method. Through this partnership, MCG will use BlinkLab’s technology to enhance their diagnostic accuracy and efficiency. This collaboration between BlinkLab and MCG exemplifies the potential of our mobile health platform to advance mental health diagnostics worldwide.
