d4Health –data driven decisions for digital health & care
Healthcare today is based on a plethora of digital data, including data directly collected by and from patients who are enrolled in telehealth programs or use wearables to track their physical activity and lifestyle. Healthcare has thus become a data rich domain. To cope with this “Big Healthcare Data” new approaches for dealing with these data are needed, in order to supply healthcare professionals with actionable information.
The talk will present some of our approaches to deal with this domain, from clinical decision support algorithms for heart failure patients to a predictive modelling approach to prevent drop outs in a mHealth-based telediabetes program.
