causes of fatalities due to severe anaphylactic shock (allergic reaction), particularly in the high
risk group of teenagers and young adults.
This group is particularly at risk due to:
- Rising incidence of allergy in younger generations
- Poor compliance and attitude to risk of this age group
- Difficulty in using some existing Epinephrine Autoinjectors without previous experience or
regular training
- Fear of self-injection
Based on extensive experience of human factors in this market, Oval has generated a novel
approach to address many of these issues. This project will allow us to test this approach and
understand the likely effectiveness and acceptability of a new device</ns2:abstractText></ns2:project>
