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).

The MIE conference has always been a hub for innovation and cutting-edge technology. This year was no exception several demonstrators showcase their unique solutions to healthcare problems. Use the opportunity to take a closer look at some of the most striking demonstrators present at the conference, highlighting their diversity and the potential impact they could have on various healthcare-related challenges

Process mining is a relatively new method that connects data science and process modelling. In the past years a series of applications with health care production data have been presented in process discovery, conformance check and system enhancement. In this paper we apply process mining on clinical oncological data with the purpose of studying survival outcomes and chemotherapy treatment decision in a real-world cohort of small cell lung cancer patients treated at Karolinska University Hospital (Stockholm, Sweden). The results highlighted the potential role of process mining in oncology to study prognosis and survival outcomes with longitudinal models directly extracted from clinical data derived from healthcare.

Research on real-world data is becoming increasingly important. The current restriction to clinical data in Germany limits the view of the patient. To gain comprehensive insights, claims data can be added to the existing knowledge. However, standardized transfer of German claims data into OMOP CDM is currently not possible. In this paper, we conducted an evaluation regarding the coverage of source vocabularies and data elements of German claims data in OMOP CDM. We point out the need to extend vocabularies and mappings to support research on German claims data.

The automatic de-identification of clinical narrative text offers efficient patient data privacy protection and eases reuse of clinical data. CliniDeID applies an ensemble method combining deep and shallow machine learning with rule-based algorithms and is released as free and open-source solution to de-identify unstructured clinical text with high accuracy. It was recently evaluated with a selection of clinical text corpora and reached high sensitivity and positive predictive value.

Electrodermal activity (EDA) reflects sympathetic nervous system activitythrough sweating-related changes in skin conductance. Decomposition analysisis used to deconvolve the EDA into slow and fast varying tonic and phasicactivity, respectively. In this study, we used machine learning models to comparethe performance of two EDA decomposition algorithms to detect emotions such asamusing, boring, relaxing, and scary. The EDA data considered in this study wereobtained from the publicly available Continuously Annotated Signals of Emotion(CASE) dataset. Initially, we pre-processed and deconvolved the EDA data intotonic and phasic components using decomposition methods such as cvxEDA andBayesianEDA. Further, twelve-time domain features were extracted from the phasiccomponent of EDA data. Finally, we applied machine learning techniques suchas logistic regression (LR) and support vector machine (SVM), to evaluate the performanceof the decomposition method. Our results imply that the BayesianEDAdecomposition method outperforms the cvxEDA. The mean of first derivative featurediscriminated all the considered emotional pairs with high statistical significance(p<0.05). SVM was able to detect emotions better than the LR classifier.We achieved a 10-fold average classification accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, precision,and f1-score of 88.2%, 76.25%, 92.08%, 76.16%, and 76.15% respectively,using BayesianEDA and SVM classifier. The proposed framework can be utilizedto detect emotional states for the early diagnosis of psychological conditions.

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

It is an obvious paradox that we as citizens, present in all clinical health encounters, lack tools to take full advantage of ongoing digital transformation in health care. In this panel we will discuss user needs and design of digital tool to improve access to personally relevant health information from trusted sources. Of special interest is adherence to treatment. The attendees can learn about opportunities to “collect, curate and control” relevant, personal health information, and digital services for personal health data and access trustworthy, up-to-date information that better meet situated, everyday needs.
