The objective of the IHI Gravitate-Health project is to improve patient access, understanding and adherence to patient information. The inability to easily access and understand high-quality health information is a significant handicap in today’s healthcare ecosystem, meaning people feel less empowered to make decisions on the management of their own health and care.
Since the commencement of this project in 2020, the Gravitate Health mission has been to equip and empower citizens as users with digital tools that make them confident, active, and responsive in their patient journey, while also specifically encouraging the safe use of medicines for improved adherence, better health outcomes and higher quality of life.
In 2023 we continued our contribution to an important EU-wide initiative on the safety use of medicines in pregnancy and breastfeeding, IMI ConcePTION. We supported the ongoing tasks in communicating with women and healthcare professionals (as part of WP5) and in developing a sustainability strategy for specific ConcePTION deliverables including the milk biobank network, information knowledge bank, and pregnancy and medication studies (WP8.7).
