In our sector, the major cloud discussion the last few years focused on data protection - what data can we store in the cloud, and in which cloud? This talk takes a different approach and ignores the cloud as an outsourcing model. Instead, principles and methods for modern cloud technology are highlighted. Correctly adopted, they enable any software developing organization to accelerate the pace of innovation. This effect can even be achieved without migrating to the cloud, and without compromising data protection and regulatory compliance. 

How do you go from being a novice to becoming skilled in biomedical and health informatics, if you’re not on the list for comprehensive and formal education within the field? We studied this and will present our insights.

Patient accessible electronic health records (PAEHRs) have been proposed as a means to improve patient safety and documentation quality, as patients become an additional source to detect mistakes in the records. In pediatric care, healthcare professionals (HCP) have noted a benefit of parent proxy users correcting errors in their child’s records. However, the potential of adolescents has so far been overlooked, despite reports of reading records to ensure accuracy. The present study examines errors and omissions identified by adolescents, and whether patients reported following up with HCPs. Survey data was collected during three weeks in January and February 2022 via the Swedish national PAEHR. Of 218 adolescent respondents, 60 reported having found an error (27.5%) and 44 (20.2%) had found missing information. Most adolescents did not take any action upon identifying an error or an omission (64.0%). Omissions were more often perceived as serious than errors. These findings call for development of policy and PAEHR design that facilitates reports of errors and omissions for adolescents, which could both improve trust and support the individual’s transition into an involved and engaged adult patient.

In order to improve the conditions for clinical research in Europe and to stimulate multinational clinical trials, CTIS - clinical trial information system - has been developed. It is a platform that is ONE single entrance to the clinical trial application and includes both the drug application and ethical approval. Several years of preparatory work and a one-year transition period have ended and from February 1, 2023 CTIS has been put into use and is mandatory to use. CTIS has been built and improved in close cooperation with users (industry and academia) and national pharmaceutical authorities and EMA, the European Medicines Agency.

More than 40% of the adult population suffers from functional gastrointestinal disorders, now considered disorders of the “gut-brain axis” (GBA) interactions, a very complex bidirectional neural, endocrine, immune, and humoral communication system modulated by the microbiota. To help discover, understand, and manage GBA disorders, the OnePlanet research center is developing digital twins focused on the GBA, combining novel sensors with artificial intelligence algorithms providing descriptive, diagnostic, predictive or prescriptive feed-back.

Amy är den smarta söktjänsten för varje vårdavdelning! Amy är er nya smarta kollega som hjälper er avdelning att spåra utrustning och håller ordning på service och underhåll. Amy vet vart utrustning finns, hur länge den stått där och när den senast blev servad eller rengjord. Ett användarvänligt och enkelt system som hjälper er avdelning att använda utrustningen mer effektivt och minskar hanteringen med att leta efter utrustning och material. Mer tid till att vårda istället för att leta helt enkelt! Presenteras av: OneMed Sverige AB. Presenteras på engelska.

Short introduction to the National Research Data Infrastructure for Personal Health Data (NFDI4Health) and proposed solutions towards findability and interoperability of clinical and epidemiological studies. Two services will be presented: the German Central Health Study Hub to support the findability of studies and the Metadata Annotation Workbench to support enrichment of data collection instruments with standardized vocabularies on the study item level.

A demonstration of an open source software prototype for improving infection control in hospitals called Smart Infection Control System (SmICS). It provides services for tracing contacts between patients, showing in-depth details for microbiological findings, patients movements and wards and offers epidemiological curves without having a vendor-dependent data storage within the application, because it is fully based upon an open interoperability standard (openEHR).
