Health 4.0 or the challenge of digitising the health system for better patient care
Cellular rejuvenation, Artificial Intelligence to prevent data leakage or the use of Big Data for research will be some of the issues that will be addressed at the Healthcare & Life Sciences Forum of DES2022
Representatives of the Ministry of Health and the Health Systems of Andalusia, Madrid or Galicia will analyse together with professionals from the Vall d'Hebron or the Health Cluster of Galicia the future of health
The digitalisation of health processes has been a trend in recent years, especially because of the pandemic. Applications that perform the medical follow-up of the patient in a remote way and in real-time, Artificial Intelligence to accelerate health research or chatbots to improve the agility of the answers in the system, are some of the cases in which technology has helped the field of health to be more resolute, effective and accompany the user more satisfactorily.
For this reason, DES-Digital Enterprise Show 2022, the reference event in digital transformation in southern Europe that is held from June 14 to 16 in Malaga, will have the Healthcare & Life Sciences Forum, a space in which it will analyse how technology is applied to health sciences can transform health systems by making them more competitive.
"The objective of digitalisation in the health sector is to shape more efficient health systems, capable of meeting the needs of a growing population and, in the case of Spain, in addition, increasingly aged," says Nacho Villoch, director of the Digital Business World Congress, the world's largest congress on institutional organisations. which is organised in the context of DES-Digital Enterprise Show 2022.

4.0 technologies to safeguard user data
The privacy of patient data is a challenge for scientific research that can be saved with the use of Artificial Intelligence. In this sense, the more than 12,000 attendees of DES2022 will be able to know the public-private project Tartaglia, which has formulated an algorithm to train AI models without the data leaving the security ring of the health system itself. Juan Carlos Sánchez Rosado, IBM Health Industry Leader; Javier Quiles del Río, Deputy Director of Information Systems of the Ferrol Health Area of the Galician Health Service; and Inmaculada Pérez Garro, Digital Health Director of GMV SECURE E-SOLUTIONS will explain the method with which they have worked so that there are no information leaks and thousands of data are endangered.
Likewise, the use of Big Data to guarantee data privacy will be the issue on which the Director of Information Systems of the Vall d'Hebron hospital in Barcelona, Yolima Cossio, together with the Managing Director of the Health Cluster of Galicia, Gisela García Álvarez, will reflect and Román Villegas Portero, from the Technical Subdirectorate of Information Management of the Andalusian Health Service.
Health in the pocket: mobile applications to care for patients
