MULTIPULM addresses the urgent challenge of caring for people with chronic respiratory diseases alongside other long-term conditions. In many low- and middle-income countries, patients face late diagnosis, fragmented care, and limited access to digital health support. The project delivers affordable digital tools and coordinated care pathways that improve quality of life, reduce hospitalisations, and strengthen healthcare systems.
The integrated model brings together:
Early risk detection and prediction
Continuous home monitoring with personalised feedback
Tools for self-management and health literacy
Better coordination between medical and social care services
Future Needs leads the project’s branding, dissemination, communication, and exploitation activities by:
Building recognition – Developing a strong and consistent project brand and visual identity
Connecting audiences – Delivering targeted dissemination campaigns for policymakers, healthcare providers, and patient groups
Ensuring uptake – Supporting exploitation through business planning, and preparation for large-scale adoption, complemented by health technology assessment (HTA) studies that analyze current funding and payment challenges while identifying alternative options to facilitate the improved integration of healthcare services in the targeted countries
MULTIPULM combines proven interventions, digital innovation, and local capacity building to create scalable, sustainable care pathways. The project:
These innovations will be tested in three national pilots:
Findings from these pilots will shape future policies and care models worldwide.
