Validation phase
Ask for a demo
An online session of about an hour, with us, on the live platform. It is how use cases are submitted for now, and the only way to see the assessment at work.
A short call comes first. We do not run a demo cold. Tell us who you are and we will arrange a brief video call to understand what your organisation runs and what you want to get out of a session — then we prepare the demo around that, with records and use cases from your own field rather than a generic tour.
If you would rather look around on your own first, ask for an account. It is free, it opens the whole Library, and there is nothing to arrange — many people find it the easier way to start.
Why a session, and not a form. We are testing the submission form and the governance dossier with a small number of hospitals, vendors and research groups before opening them. Until that is done there is no self-service submission: a use case is filed together with us, and the assessment stages — maturing, validating, scaling — are shown in a session rather than opened to every account.
What we do in a session
- 1
The Library, live
A record and a use case as they stand today: what was read from the source, how far it has been checked and by whom, and what the product’s authorisation leaves open.
- 2
Submitting a use case — with you
If you bring a use case your organisation runs, is piloting, or has stopped, we file it together, under your organisation’s name: what it does, where in the pathway it sits, what it puts in front of a clinician — and what worked, what did not, and what another hospital would need. The Lab then checks the record, and it is published only once you have approved it.
- 3
The governance dossier
How a use case is assessed: seven sections — purpose, evidence, CE conformity, legal duties, ethics, safety, and what a hospital must have in place — each with a finding, and each signed in an institution’s own name.
- 4
From maturing to scaling
What it takes for a use case to count as validated, and what is packaged so that another organisation can adopt it. No real use case has completed this yet; the first will be built with the organisations that take part now.
The additional benefits of submitting a use case
Beyond being visible in the Library once you approve:
A record that is checked and comparable, not only listed
Checked against its source by a person and filed in the same vocabulary as every other record — the difference between a deployment described on your own website and one an independent catalogue holds. You can have it corrected at any time.
The evidence context you do not hold
What has been trialled and deployed for the same clinical purpose and the same product: by whom, in which countries, and whether the results were ever published.
Your own use case against the seven governance questions
In the session we go through your use case with you: what the evidence shows, what the regulation requires, what is still open. You see how the assessment works on a case you know, and decide afterwards whether to take it further.
No cost, no obligation, nothing of yours exposed
Submitting is free and commits you to nothing. The platform holds facts about a deployment, never patient data. Gaps, open questions and work in progress are not published; they are seen only by those who assess the use case.
What to bring
Nothing is required. A use case you know well makes the session yours: the facts about it, never patient data — the platform holds metadata about a deployment and nothing else. Submitting is free and carries no obligation.
