Successful digitalization requires bold and courageous leadership – with extensive skills in change management and fully understanding Return on Investment (ROI) – “bang for the buck”. This lecture will address the challenges to all healthcare leaders in digitalization, with the objective that all decision making must be based on facts to ensure that a change always is an improvement.

A practical approach to innovating and transforming healthcare through collaboration and acceleration of external companies and partners within Ramsay Santé 

In this seminar, Michelle will give an overview of human-centered Artificial Intelligence at AstraZeneca's Digital Health Research & Development.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has great potential to transform healthcare, making it more efficient, equitable, and safe. There are hundreds of AI-based tools available on the market today, yet few get adopted into clinical practice because of numerous barriers and challenges. This talk provides an overview of these hurdles and suggests 26 considerations synthesized from the literature, interviews, and workshop with stakeholders who have experience with the process of trying to adopt AI-based tools into clinical practice. We believe that as the barriers and challenges to AI adoption are addressed and overcome, AI will inevitably have a lasting impact on improving healthcare for all.

Deep learning models for radiology are typically deployed either through cloud-based platforms, through on-premises infrastructures, or though heavyweight viewers. This tends to restrict the audience of deep learning models to radiologists working in state-of-the-art hospitals, which raises concerns about the democratization of deep learning for medical imaging, most notably in the context of research and education. We show that complex deep learning models can be applied directly inside Web browsers, without resorting to any external computation infrastructure, thanks to the use of WebAssembly, and we release our code as free and open-source software. This opens the path to the use of teleradiology solutions as an effective way to distribute, teach, and evaluate deep learning architectures.

Separate registration required: https://www.mie2023.org/tutorials,With this tutorial, participants will gain a detailed insight into the Data Sharing Framework (DSF). The open source DSF enables users to execute biomedical research and healthcare delivery processes across organizations, and the tutorial will demonstrate this with examples from the German Medical Informatics Initiative (MII) funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). The tutorial will cover fundamental concepts of distributed processes, the DSFs architecture and key standards such as HL7 FHIR and BPMN 2.0. Participants will have the opportunity to gain hands-on experience with the DSF by working with different processes in a lab setting. Technical aspects such as authentication and authorization will be covered, as well as guidance on using the DSF for other use cases. This tutorial is designed for those involved in distributed research projects, including project members and software developers, as well as individuals interested in multi-organizational research projects.Additional information: https://dsf.dev/tutorials/MIE2023.html

EHDS (European Health Data Space) proposes a common European legislation which among other things ensures access to health data for secondary use.In this presentation, we look at the informatics associated with secondary use of health data, established standards and techniques for making data available for secondary use (including OMOP), international real world examples and how healthcare organizations can benefit internally from tools for secondary use.

The Centre for Preventive Care is a speculative design project exploring the future of healthcare. In november 2022 visitors were invited to Södersjukhuset in Stockholm to experience a healthcare visit in the future and to reflect upon pros and cons of a healthcare system build on prediction and prevention. 

Most Nordic countries have created their own set of FHIR base profiles. There has not been harmonization between these efforts, rather each country has had their own internal process. However, harmonizing the base profiles would be really useful. A harmonized content format across the Nordic countries would allow a FHIR app developed in one country to be used in another without major modifications. It would also simplify sharing health data across borders.A new initiative is being launched to harmonize the FHIR base profiles across the Nordic countries.

Equal access to health data is far from reality today and there is a lack of comparison between countries. To motivate, understand and increase progress, we start from the position that highlighting current status, sharing evidence related to practices and policies, and identifying major enablers and obstacles across national and regional boundaries is necessary. Therefore, we have invited panel participants to introduce five different countries, representing five different stages of and approaches to patients’ ORA implementation.

The Norwegian project "Safer health apps" has looked at how Norway can increase the uptake of health apps in the society – as part of the national, public health service – and developed a "how-to" guide for quality assessment of health apps and similar technologies.

Why is AI proving more of a challenge in Healthcare than other industries?  AI has been promoted as the saviour of medicine yet has failed to make the difference many predicted. Here in this presentation we will explore how AI has changed the potential for healthcare and the barriers that are still faced.

Welcome to a networking event organized by Business Finland, Viexpo and the Finnish Institute of Health and Welfare for healthcare professionals from the public and private sector. This is an excellent opportunity to discuss innovation in smart ageing and care and explore collaboration opportunities with different stakeholders. Light food and beverages will be served.
