In an article published yesterday in leading German business daily Handelsblatt entitled “Making life easier for carers”, Jana Ehrhardt-Joswig took a look into the role of “care robotics” in healthcare and how #nursing and other #care professionals can be supported in their important work. The article explores various approaches and solutions to the challenges faced by those providing patient care and how the physical demands and the aspect of the human touch can best be met for the sake of both the worker and the patient. German Bionic’s #Apogee+ #exoskeleton, which is already in use in numerous care facilities and hospitals such as the renowned Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin hospital, is highlighted as an example of striking this balance. Our #exoskeletons are designed to provide physical support to healthcare workers, alleviating the physical strain involved during lifting, lowering, or when working in bent-over positions. This support not only helps protect the health of nursing staff, it also allows them to focus more on the essential human aspect of their work – social interaction with patients.

Women and health: Moving away from "bikini medicine". It was so interesting to learn from my co-panelists at the NZZ podium discussion last week. 💟 Catherine Gebhard, MD, PhD, Head of Preventive Cardiology and Women's Heart Center at the university hospital in Bern highlighted that fewer drugs have been tested on women since the 1960s, and women are still less likely to participate in clinical studies, leading to a gender data gap. She pointed out that clinical studies are often led by men and that gender differences in drug effects can result in more frequent overdoses and delayed diagnoses for women. 🧠 Dr Antonella Santuccione Chadha Founder and CEO of Women's Brain Foundation argued for better awareness among women. She pointed out that while the elephant house at the Zurich Zoo cost over 40 million francs, the Swiss National Science Foundation allocated only 11 million francs for gender medicine. She advocated for precise research to develop gender-specific medications. Although women live longer than men, their quality of life is often poor. Many women live in institutions and nursing homes where they are prescribed antipsychotics and painkillers. 👩‍💻 I shared their perspective of that we need much more money for research in gender medicine, but also highlighting all the positive trends that we are seeing. The societal changes with more women in science, more female doctors and decision makers is already starting to turn things around. I also pointed out the positive momentum of #femtech and how I believe that #AI will contribute further data collection leading to better care for women around the globe. If you speak german, you can read more about our discussion in the NZZ-article below. Thank you Gioia da Silva for the great moderation and Sarina Bopp for the organisation! https://lnkd.in/dD2v_-ha #womenshealth #aiinhealth #gendermedicine Zühlke Group

🔹“Everything great in the world only happens because someone does more than he has to.“ - A pseudo-quote by A. Einstein. 🔹„Alles Große in der Welt wird nur dadurch Wirklichkeit, daß irgendwer mehr tut, als er müßte“ - Hermann Gmeiner (1919–1986), Austrian philanthropist & founder of SOS Children's Villages (mentioned by Markus M. Ronner, "Die Treffende Pointe,“ 1974) 🔹The quote emphasizes the importance of commitment, dedication & going above & beyond in achieving great things. It reminds us that true greatness is not achieved by merely meeting minimum requirements, but by the will to go beyond the norm. By challenging oneself & committing to excellence, one can help create significant change & achievement in the world. Ultimately, the quote shows that it is those who are willing to do more than expected who can impact the world in a positive way. 🔹“Everything great in #neuromodulation only happens because #neuromodulators do more than they have to!“ - GM #SCS #SpinalCordStimulation #IDDS #TDD #intrathecal #chronicpain #painmedicine #interventionalpainmanagement #interventionalpainmedicine #neurosciences #neurotech #medtech #Rückenmarkstimulation #neurostimulator #schmerzschrittmacher #chronischeschmerzen #rückenschmerzen #PSPS #CRPS #νευροτροποποίηση #διέγερσηνωτιαίουμυελού #nöromodülasyon #kronikağrı #spinalkordstimülasyonu #omurilikpili #стимуляцияспинногомозга #脊髓刺激 #鞘内治疗 International Neuromodulation Society

An example of an employer who walks the talk. 🚶🏼 🍍☕Simon Mader often posts about employers focusing on what they can extract from their team and not what they can offer (sad that he has to state the obvious - the free coffee and fruit basket just ain't cutting it, but that's another topic for another day). 🧠It looks to me from the outside that this employee-focused, mindset has infused the entire business culture at ADBAKER with coolness and Mehrwert. ❓After looking through the open positions, I can only see two points that should always be includiert...if they're not already secret special bonuses ;) 🤔Can you guess what they might be? 🥨🎨So if you speak German, are a creative type, and want to work in/near Germany's awesomest city - check out their openings. P.S. I noticed the cool kids nowadays are using Anglizismen, so I droppt a couple Germanisms/Neologisms in this post. Am I doing it right?

How do population health and demographics impact the supply of skilled workers within and beyond the Health Economy? What is the value of preventive interventions? At the #EuHEA2024 Conference in Vienna, these questions were key topics assessed in various research sessions.     WifOR Institute’s new tool, the Health ROI Assessor, provides data-driven answers to interlink the two objectives. It was developed by WifOR colleagues Karla Hernandez-Villafuerte, PhD, Dr. Jan Fries, Prof. Dr. Dennis Ostwald, and Dr. Maike Schmitt in close collaboration with Rifat Atun (Harvard University).     On behalf of the team, Dr. Schmitt, Senior Researcher for Health Economics at WifOR Institute, shared insights into the tool. She chaired a session on prevention policy and public investment where she presented how the macroeconomic tool supports policymaking on resource allocation to overcome unsustainable structures in Germany’s Health Economy.    Key takeaways:    💡 WifOR Institute’s Health ROI Assessor is a new tool to support policy decision-making. It evaluates the impact of investing in a medical innovation or preventive measure for, not only patients, but the wider society and economy as well.    💡 WifOR’s Health ROI Assessor opens new perspectives on health economic assessment. It supports policy decision-making, contributes to a new understanding of health investments, and helps to shape a healthier population.    💡 Using cervical cancer in Germany as an example, Dr. Schmitt presented how the macroeconomic effects of investing in preventative measures can be calculated with the Health ROI Assessor. These effects include the Health Economy Footprint, Human Capital Effects, and Labor Market ramifications.    We would like to thank fellow presenters Boaz Hovav (University of Haifa), Mehdi Ammi (Carleton University), and Alessandra Hidalgo Aréstegui (Lancaster University) for the interesting insights and lively discussions with the audience.     @WifOR Institute’s Dr. Jan Fries, Team Lead for International Social Policy, and Foteini Tsotra, Senior Researcher in Health Economics, joined Dr. Schmitt to exchange ideas with other academic experts and share insights into WifOR’s Health Economics and Labor Market research.     For more on WifOR’s Health Economics Research, head to: https://lnkd.in/e3t6sPPz    #HealthForAll  #HealthEconomics  #HealthIsAnInvestment

At today's Federal Press Conference the German Expert Council on Health & Care (Sachverständigenrat Gesundheit & Pflege, SVR) presented its latest expert report on “Skilled workers in the healthcare sector. Sustainable use of a scarce resource” to the public and handed it over to Federal Minister of Health Prof. Dr. Karl Lauterbach. In the report, the members of the Expert Council state that, in an international comparison and in relation to the population, the German healthcare system has a relatively large number of employees. Nevertheless, supply shortages are clearly evident, which points to structural deficits. The SVR therefore recommends a package of measures to ensure that the valuable resource of specialists can be used in a more targeted manner in the interests of patient welfare in future. #HCHE Director Prof. Dr. Jonas Schreyögg is Deputy Chairman of the SVR and emphasizes the need for structural reforms: “Germany cannot avoid structural reforms in the healthcare system. The healthcare landscape as it has developed over the last few decades ties up too many staff and does not deliver the quality we want in case of illness for what we invest. We cannot overcome the shortage of skilled staff with individual measures, but only with a package of measures. Above all, this includes a reform of emergency care, in particular through the creation of integrated control centers and integrated emergency centers, as already outlined by the Council in its 2018 report, an effective hospital reform that brings together specialists and expertise in functional centers, as well as further development of remuneration to enable more outpatient services for operations, among other things.” The full report “Skilled workers in the healthcare sector. Sustainable use of a scarce resource” (in german) can be found here: https://t1p.de/8quy9 #health #healthcare #fachkräftemangel #svr #SachverständigenratGesundheit #Bundesgesundheitsminister

🇩🇪 On implementation of the new German Health Data Use Act (#GDNG) and progress toward European Health Data Space (#EHDS): “🔊 the issue of #HealthData literacy and health data use competence must be addressed so that we can also achieve targeted and profitable health data use. Here, investments must also be made in professional communication and the presentation of tangible use cases! 🔊 The implementation of EHDS and GDNG is a joint task of the federal government, the states, industry, utilities and research! Only if all key players work together can we take advantage of the huge opportunity that EHDS and GDNG offer us” New Health Data Research Centre being built up and staffed accordingly to be functional and fit for purpose. Much more in Dr Münzenrieder’s post below. In addition, from Member of the Bundestag Matthias Mieves: “#DigitalHealth Agency is coming - The draft law is here❗️ We have been waiting for this for a long time, now the time has finally come - the #gematik is being expanded 💪 into a digital agency for health 🔜 What happens next? In the coming weeks, the first consultation in the Bundestag will take place after the cabinet decision. After that, there is time to negotiate the law” (Similar to France’s Agence du Numérique en Santé??) See Mr Mieves’ post here: https://lnkd.in/dGci8Vkn

We develop further medical education activities for qualifying and qualified medical doctors in different indications. Also, most of our corporate social responsibility activities have an educational focus. Recently, we have added Deutsche Universitätsstiftung Bonn, a foundation that provides grants and bursaries to students, who are either the first in their families to go to university or come from a refugee background. #medicaleducation #whatweareproudof #education #infilcorporatesocialresponsibility
