Submission system

The workshop is part of the 13th International Joint Conference on Biomedical Engineering Systems and Technologies - BIOSTEC 2020 24 - 26 February, 2020 - Valletta, Malta

Scope
Healthcare delivery undergoes a rapid change from traditional processes towards the use of digital health interventions and personalized medicine. While hospitals and health care providers introduce hospital information systems, electronic health records and telemedicine solutions for more efficient workflows within and beyond institutions, patients may choose between a wide range of digital health applications provided by wearables and mobile phone applications supporting their self-management, health and well-being. However, the question of how sustainable digital health diffusion can be successfully reached is not sufficiently solved yet. Our workshop seeks for submissions dealing with this question and especially the diffusion and adoption of digital health innovations. We welcome research and theory papers as well as case studies and best practice examples. The workshop includes paper presentations, invited talks and open workshop parts for discussing innovative topics.

We are very proud to announce that Diane Whitehouse (EHTEL, Belgium) and Lisa Marsch (Center for Technology and Behavioral Health, Dartmouth College) will offer detailed insights into their innovative activities.

Topics

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to :

  • Innovative and implemented (telemedical) care models to mitigate the demographic impact on the health care system 
  • Implementation strategies or models for localizing and tailoring of digital health solutions 
  • Quality management in integrated healthcare networks and for digitally supported care models 
  • Dissemination and adoption strategies for digital innovations 
  • Transformation of traditional care processes by the use of information and communication technologies, e.g. successful intra- and interorganizational implementation of health information systems, electronic health records, or telemedicine/eHealth applications 
  • Health behavior change through the use of digital health interventions 
  • Digital Health at home – successfully putting individualized ambient assisted living solutions to use
