Sustainability in Healthcare: Why Early Diagnosis is Sustainable
A sustainable healthcare system is not just about environmentally friendly hospital design or reducing plastic waste. Sustainability starts with diagnosis: The earlier and more precisely a disease is detected, the more efficiently resources can be used, unnecessary examinations can be avoided, and therapies can be optimized. This has economic, ecological, and social benefits.
Experience Management: the new Standard in Healthcare
Experience Management in the context of healthcare has gained importance in the past years. Examining fields that underwent a digital transformation in the past, such as the e-commerce industry, can yield valuable insights into the observed trends and the desired outcomes.
Interoperability with FHIR:Â Creating structure in medical data
Medical data and its collection, sharing, and analysis are now integral parts of the diagnostic process and increasingly important for more efficient and effective patient care. Interoperability enables seamless communication between different systems and paves the way for advanced diagnostics applications.
The use of LOINC standards in the DEMIS electronic reporting system
The standardization of medical data is a prerequisite for the implementation of large-scale electronic healthcare systems, such as DEMIS. medicalvalues enables such use cases and unlocks the full potential of existing data.
Interview with Klaus-Peter Weber from the association “In WĂĽrde alt werden e.V.”
Klaus-Peter Weber is a qualified nurse and specialist in surgery with a focus on trauma surgery. He is also head of the Interdisciplinary Geriatric Traumatology/Geriatrics at the DRK Hospital Altenkirchen-Hachenburg.
Diversity in laboratory diagnostics
The idea of personalized medicine, i.e. diagnostics and therapy tailored to the individual patient, is intended to make healthcare more efficient and targeted. At the same time, many laboratory reference values are handled uniformly across genders, ethnicities and age groups. Is a mind shift needed here?
Mapping wildfires through satellite dataÂ
Mapping wildfires through satellite data can help monitor their impact and mitigate the damage caused. medicalvalues utilizes Earth Observation data and artificial intelligence methods to provide decision support during disaster relief efforts.
The benefit of standards such as SNOMED and LOINC in everyday clinical practice and for digitization
The digital transformation takes place in all areas of life and makes data an economically important resource. In the healthcare sector, it can optimize medical and business management as improve research. At the same time, there are special challenges on the path to digitization in the healthcare system with data scattered across institutions and inconsistent standards. How this can still be achieved and how uniform data formatting becomes the rule will be made clear in the following article.
Additional demand and reflex testing
Subsequent requests are not only time-consuming and cost-intensive, but also repeatedly interrupt the clinical daily routine, causing delays. medicalvalues supports this process and mitigates these problems.
Interaction for medical data between senders and laboratory physicians
The communication between senders and receivers of medical tests and laboratory results lack due to time pressure and complicated communication ways. medicalvalues builds a solution to overcome those barriers.
