How digitalization is transforming the healthcare sector: Potentials and stumbling blocks
In his lecture “How digitalization is transforming the healthcare system”, Prof. Dr. Johannes Schobel highlighted the potential of mHealth solutions in particular, which - now ubiquitous and versatile - offer many opportunities to increase safety and efficiency. On the other hand, he pointed out the hurdles facing the healthcare sector when it comes to digitalization, including data protection concerns, strict legal and regulatory requirements and complex medical data. Research and practical projects, particularly in the field of AI and machine learning, are often confronted with a lack of data quality and availability.
More safety in your own home: intelligent fall detection for senior citizens
With stand-by.care, the HNU research professor also presented a current research project in which he is developing a user-friendly and innovative solution for intelligent fall detection for senior citizens together with practice partner artiso solutions GmbH: Using an adapter system for household appliances, interruptions in the daily activity profile of those affected can be detected so that relatives can be informed directly about possible emergencies. “Stand-by.care” won the Innovation Sprint competition of the German Agency for Transfer and Innovation (DATI) and is funded as part of the DATIpilot program.
