    Our Approach

    • 2-phased approach:
      1. Combination of Comprehensive Secondary Research (Phase 1- Desk research based on published literature)
      2. Quantitative Research (Phase 2- Online survey) with General Surgeons (those performing surgeries to treat secondary peritonitis) in target countries (USA, UK, Germany, Spain, Portugal)
    The Objectives

    The Objectives

    • To identify incidence and number of cases of secondary peritonitis.
    • To understand how many surgeries are performed each year that lead to secondary peritonitis.
    • To identify number of revision surgeries needed as consequence of a secondary peritonitis.
    • How are these reoperations treated now?
    • To identify number of liters of peritoneal lavage solution needed for each kind of indication.
    • What would the maximum price be of 1 liter that fits in the reimbursement system?
    Project Outcomes

    Solution/Outcome

    • We conducted intense desk research by studying more than 400 published articles and reviewing country-specific databases to identify key indications of secondary peritonitis, number of procedures done to treat them, and liters of lavage solution used in each of the target countries.
    • Primary research with general surgeons helped us to give robustness to the outcome and to understand their interest in the novel lavage solution at an expected price point.
    • Based on the research findings, we were able to estimate the potential market opportunity and within it if there are any specific procedures which can benefit more from the solution.
    • The research insights helped us to identify and recommend the next steps to be taken in order to build a comprehensive business case for the client.
