New Method for Smell Training Gains Media Attention in Sweden 💡 Recently, Swedish media has highlighted a new method for smell training, developed in collaboration with researchers at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm. Oriola has been entrusted with distributing this product to pharmacies. A significant majority of Covid-19 patients who lost their sense of smell and taste during the pandemic do not complete the recommended smell rehabilitation, often finding it too cumbersome. The loss of smell has a severely negative impact on quality of life, with as many as half of those affected reporting feelings of sadness and depression. The new method involves scented "smell plugs" made of silicone that are inserted into the nose, allowing users to continue their daily activities, which is a major improvement over previous methods. The project is led by Professor Johan Lundström at the Karolinska Institute, and studies show that approximately 93% of patients complete their treatment using this new method, compared to only 12-15% with the standard method. There are significant benefits to be gained in the rehabilitation of those who have suffered from loss of smell and taste. https://lnkd.in/d23WxcYF Link to clinical study in the comments section NOSA Karolinska Institutet #covid19 #smelltraining #healthforlife

Leading for a Healthier Tomorrow ✨ This spring, the first group of leaders at Oriola, including the management team, met at our Stockholm office for the kick-off of our new leadership development programme. Taking leadership and a collaborative culture to the next level is essential for future-proofing Oriola in line with our refined strategy. To quote one of the participating managers: "Participating in the Leadership Core Program has been a transformative journey. It hasn't only helped me develop my leadership skills and self-awareness but also strengthened my relationships with colleagues." The plan is to make it a continuous programme at Oriola, with the remaining managers set to participate throughout the coming year. #leadership #healthforlife Anna Holm Emmy Bennström Asklöf Niklas Lindholm Heidi Kempas Jessica Löwenhielm Sanna Uthardt Lasse Wrennmark
