Digital Care and Medical Technologies: Smart Health - How AI and Digitalisation are Transforming Health Care

Digitalisation and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are revolutionising medicine and healthcare. The Institute Industrial IT of Technische Hochschule Ostwestfalen-Lippe and the Klinikum Lippe are jointly researching new scientific and technical developments for specific medical fields of application such as the optimised diagnosis and care of Parkinson's patients.

Prof. Dr. Volker Lohweg (Director inIT) and the research assistants Christoph-Alexander Holst (working group Prof. Dr. Volker Lohweg), Frauke Wiegräbe (working group Prof. Dr. Helene Dörksen) and Anton Pfeifer (working group Prof. Dr. Volker Lohweg) (from left) with the foundation certificate of the PNOWL+.

With our research, we would like to sustainably improve the care and support of Parkinson's patients in East Westphalia-Lippe and thus enable those affected and their relatives to enjoy a better quality of life. In the Parkinson's Network East Westphalia-Lippe+ (PNOWL+), necessary measures are to be identified and implemented to make a real difference to Parkinson's care in the region.

We are currently researching methods that help patients in everyday life to individually monitor their medication on the one hand and to control their walking behaviour on the other. Furthermore, with the support of large language models, we are developing effective writing of doctor's letters with a focus on idiopathic Parkinson's syndrome and stroke.

As a founding member of the Parkinson's Network East Westphalia-Lippe+, we as a research institute are in close exchange with practitioners.

Learn first-hand how AI and digitalisation are transforming healthcare at the solutions event "Digital Care and Medical Technologies: Smart Health" on 22.11.2023 from 14.00 to 17.00 at InnovationSPIN, Campusallee 19, 32567 Lemgo, Room: 3_18 Seminar 2.
