Doctors educate patients and get informed consent on a daily basis through analogue and paper-based processes. The need for visual and personalized explanations on the patients' side is huge. Doctors on the other hand demand an easy-to-use digital solution that, usefully integrated, eases their daily operations.

Born in the department of Neurosurgery a Chief Physician in Switzerland is pushing to create a new standard for patient education: Personalised animated video education and documentation.

A good idea is not enough. With a first prototype, the founding team manages to win valuable key partners for clinical test phases. During the first test set-ups, it quickly becomes clear that there is a great need for individual and, above all, patient-centred visual support.

After proving the fundamental need for a new standard in patient education, medudoc manages to recruit central team members for the areas of product development, medical content creation as well as patient psychology.

A central component of medudoc is customisable video content, which can be specifically adapted to different patient needs. Together with innovative and ambitious clinic partners, the first medical content and data models were developed in close cooperation and then tested in various pilots.

November 2021 marks the official launch date of medudoc in the first clinic.

After positive results and feedback from patients and clinicians, the medudoc team is growing and winning excellent support to grow in the areas of business development and clinical testing. At the same time, more clinics start using medudoc for patient education and clinical studies prove the positive effect of individualised video education in informed consent processes.

It is medudoc's vision to transform healthcare through innovative patient education worldwide. Being active in the DACH region and catering to three countries' individual needs in regard to informed consent is a major milestone for the company and the underlying base to expand internationally.

We have a big vision and aim to bring individualised and video-based patient education to every clinic. Therefore we will grow our medical content library as well as our access to clinics. With new features lined up such as real-time AI translations, we will eradicate language barriers in hospitals. With our digital signature, we will offer a holistic digital informed consent process.
