E5: Organisational Showcase
Friday 20 September 2019
1315 - 1430
Our organisational showcases are an opportunity to gain a fresh perspective on exciting organisational developments and to share experiences of transforming healthcare. In this interactive session you will hear about the challenges and opportunities faced by renowned Taiwanese hospitals.
The session will be structured as follows:
Part A - (presentation of 30 minutes, followed by 5-10 minutes of Q&A)
1. Taipei Medical University Hospital (TMUH): The ABC in TMUH
2. Wanfang Hospital: Strategies to promote accurate diagnosis of osteoporosis to meet WHO standards in Taiwan
3. Shuang-Ho Hospital: Integrated Intelligent and Innovative care for chronic airway disease patients
Part B - (presentation of 30 minutes, followed by 5-10 minutes of Q&A)
National Taiwan University Hospital (NTUH): Transforming health care through innovation – REDCap System and Precision Medicine in NTUH
1.Taipei Medical University Hospital (TMUH): The ABC in TMUH
Artificial intelligence (AI) in health care is now considered merely within touching distance. The Taipei Medical University Hospital (TMUH) have devoted to the AI in critical care and especially focusing on structured electronic medical records (EMR) data and disease prediction model development. The data-enriched ICU care is an excellent and comprehensive environment for new AI-centric approach with innovative tools. Recently, the TMUH had developed an ICU information system, called the Ted-ICU AI platform, for supporting 24-hour ICU care monitoring and early predicting ICU diseases, for example, sepsis and delirium. In the foreseeable future, AI will inevitably be more crucial in ICU care. With Taiwan’s advantage in medicine, computing technology, and data science, AI in medicine is a goal worthy of our efforts. Besides, the TMUH is also the first to adopt the blockchain technologies to empower patients to own and control their EMR and electronic health records (EHR) data in Taiwan. Adoption of blockchain technology can represent a reliable strategy to facilitate patient-centric interoperability between patients and different stakeholders. Accordingly, with blockchain technologies, many interesting health care use cases are launched in TMUH. Using a blockchain-enabled approach to design novel medical services with patient-centered principles is our first, exciting experience in health care.
