HaarSain – Reducing Spread of Airborne Pathogens in Healthcare SBRI Innovation Challenge

Descriptions

Contracts will be between NHS Golden Jubilee and winning participants. The main place of Performance will be primarily located within Ninewells Hospital, Dundee, though other sites in NHS Tayside, social care and outpatient settings will also be considered. We are partnering with Transport Scotland, Balhousie Care Home Group and other public sector bodies in this challenge in order to increase applicability and potential for wide adoption of solutions where an evidence base can be obtained. The aim of the competition is to develop solutions that aid prevention or reduce the spread of droplet and airborne biological hazards, reduce NHS staff reliance on single use disposable PPE, and allow the return of clinical procedures which are currently considered high risk because of their aerosol generating nature. This may be achieved through the development of re-useable PPE, methods of decontamination, or methods of area/surface/air cleansing which avoids the requirement for PPE use, or a combination of these. Our 'Test Bed' brings in expertise from Infection Prevention and Control, Decontamination, Health and Safety, Medical Physics and other technical, clinical and support areas as may be required, in order to consider and evaluate a potentially broad range of available solutions. The challenge will focus on three specific areas. Bidders should indicate which of these challenges they are addressing and use the appropriate application form. Where a bidder wishes to address multiple challenges A,B and or C, they will need to complete an application form for each challenge addressed. Challenge A: Re-useable PPE, in particular, Face Masks equivalent to FFP3 standard, or equipment which would provide the same level of protection. Particular attention to face fit and comfort for longer use required. Face masks equivalent to Type IIR will also be welcome. We expect to fund 1 to 3 projects in this theme - each expected to be up to 45,000GBP inc VAT Challenge B: Decontamination/cleaning of existing PPE for re-use, in particular face masks visors and shields, excluding PPE specifically manufactured as single use. We expect to fund 1 to 3 projects in this theme - each expected to be up to 45,000GBP inc VAT Challenge C: Air and/or surface decontamination which will reduce the infection risk in an occupied area, reducing the infection risk in an area and reducing the need for PPE to be worn. Areas not limited to the NHS. We expect to fund 2 to 3 projects in this theme - each expected to be up to 60,000GBP inc VAT A more detailed specification for each challenge area is provided in the competition documents.
