Monitoring objective physiological data, mood, and situational factors form the basis for visualizing the daily routine. This data is intended to help patients and treating medical professionals recognize early warning signs and thus adapt treatment. This should reduce or even completely avoid the duration of an illness episode and hospital stay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Driving expansion in Europe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The startup has now received \u20ac1.3 million from Czech investors for this innovative approach. The funding will be used to further expand the teams in Prague and Munich to drive expansion in Europe. Nation 1, Redwood Capital, and private investors Ivan Hruska and Vlastimil Palata have invested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>From successful clinical trial to application<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Treating bipolar disorder is difficult and carries a high risk of relapse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&quot;This chronic mental illness is characterized by alternating states of mania and depression that can last for up to several months.

The AKTIBIPO400 study, conducted in collaboration with the National Institute of Mental Health (NUDZ), involves 350 bipolar patients and more than 100 psychiatrists from across the Czech Republic and Slovakia. 200 patients have already completed the full 18-month study period, and 50 more will follow in the next six months. Further clinical trials focusing on bipolar and psychotic disorders will be conducted throughout 2020.
