Description

Description (DA):

Den demografiske udvikling lægger et stort pres på den offentlige sektor i programregionen. I fremtiden vil vi være færre i den arbejdsdygtige alder og flere ældre borgere. Fremover har vi ikke råd til kun at fokusere på sygdom og behandle, når behovet opstår, derfor koncentrerer NorDigHealth sig om indsatser, der kan forebygge sygdom og behovet for dyre behandlinger på hospitalerne. I NorDigHealth har vi etableret en unik projektgruppe bestående af aktører fra danske og tyske kommuner, sygehusafdelinger, private virksomheder og uddannelsesinstitutioner, som i et quatro-helix-samarbejde vil forbedre borgernes sundhed vha. sundhedsteknologi. For at gøre dette vil vi omdanne to byer – Lübeck og Næstved – til tech towns. I de udvalgte byer stiller vi teknologiske gadgets til rådighed sammen med lægefaglig rådgivning for både borgere og patienter. Borgerne vil teste løsninger, som fx skal optimere søvn og fysisk aktivitet, og hjemskrevne patienter vil teste løsninger, som fx skal bidrage til at reducere bivirkninger. Med en dansk og tysk by sikrer vi en kritisk masse til testene, tester i to forskellige sundhedssystemer og kulturer, og giver SMV'er lettere adgang til nye markeder til gavn for programregionens udvikling. Quatro-helix-samarbejdet vil via et tæt samarbejde mellem virksomheder og forskning bidrage til, at de genererede forsknings- og udviklingsresultater kommercialiseres. Samtidig inddrages civilsamfundet i byerne, og der skabes et netværk omkring testforløbene, som skal bidrage til, at de sunde adfærdsændringer er blivende. Innovationen i tech towns er høj, og byer med fokus på sundhedsteknologi findes ikke andre steder i verden. Konceptet er således nyt og giver mulighed for at indsamle og anvende big data i en helt anden udstrækning end hidtil til gavn for programregionens borgere og SMV’er. Via et mediepartnerskab med NDR og DR vil vi dække udviklingen og oplevelserne med sundhedsteknologi i de to tech towns gennem casefortællinger. Også Sat1 og andre medier har udvist interesse for NorDigHealth, hvorfor medierne kommer til at spille en betydelig rolle i formidlingen af projektet.

Description (DE):

Die Auswirkungen des demographischen Wandels setzen den öffentlichen Sektor in der Programmregion spürbar unter Druck. In Zukunft werden wir weniger im arbeitsfähigen Alter sein und mehr ältere Bürger/-innen. Wir können es uns in Zukunft nicht leisten, nur auf Krankheiten zu fokussieren und zu behandeln, wenn Bedarf entsteht. Daher werden wir uns in NorDigHealth auf präventive Maßnahmen konzentrieren, die Krankheit, und damit der Notwendigkeit für teure Behandlungen in Krankenhäusern, vorbeugen können. In NorDigHealth haben wir eine einzigartige Projektgruppe, bestehend aus Akteuren aus dänischen und deutschen Kommunen, Krankenhausabteilungen, privaten Unternehmen und Lehrinstitutionen, etabliert, die in Form einer Quatro-helix-Zusammenarbeit die Gesundheit der Bürger/-innen mithilfe von Gesundheitstechnologie verbessern will. Dazu werden zwei Städte – Lübeck und Næstved – zu Tech Towns umgewandelt. In den ausgewählten Städten stellen wir technologische Gadgets in Kombination mit ärztlicher Beratung für Bürger/-innen und Patienten/-innen zur Verfügung. Indem sowohl eine dänische, als auch eine deutsche Stadt inkludiert ist, sichern wir eine kritische Masse für die verschiedenen Tests, testen in zwei verschieden Gesundheitssystemen und Kulturen, und geben KMU‘s leichteren Zugang zu neuen Märkten, zugunsten der Entwicklung der Programmregion. Die Quatro-helix Zusammenarbeit wird, durch enge Zusammenarbeit von Unternehmen und Forschung, dazu beitragen, dass die generierten Forschungsresultate kommerzialisiert werden. Gleichzeitig wird die zivile Bevölkerung in den Städten einbezogen und ein Netzwerk um die Testverläufe etabliert, das dazu beitragen soll, dass die Verhaltensänderungen andauern. Die Innovation in Tech Towns ist sehr hoch, und Städte mit Fokus auf Gesundheitstechnologien existieren nicht an anderen Orten dieser Welt. Das Konzept ist somit neu und gibt die Möglichkeit Big Data in einem ganz anderen Ausmaß als bisher möglich zugunsten der Bürger/-innen und KMU’s der Programmregion einzusammeln und anzuwenden. Durch eine Medienpartnerschaft mit NDR und DR wollen wir von der Entwicklung und den Erfahrungen mit Gesundheitstechnologien in den zwei Tech Towns durch Fallerzählungen berichten. Sat.1 und andere Medien haben auch Interesse am Projekt gezeigt, weshalb Medien eine wichtige Rolle in der Kommunikation des Projekts spielen werden.

Description (EN):

The demographic development places great pressure on the public sector in the program region. In the future the number of people in the work force will be fewer and there will be more elderly people. In the future, we cannot afford to focus on disease only and offer treatment when the need arises. Therefore, NorDigHealth focuses on measures that prevent disease and the need for expensive treatments in hospitals. In NorDigHealth, we have established a unique project group consisting of actors from Danish and German municipalities, hospital departments, private companies and educational institutions that, in a quatro-helix collaboration, aim to improve the health of citizens through health technology. To do this, we will transform two cities - Lübeck and Næstved - into tech towns. In the selected cities, we provide a number of citizens and patients with tech gadgets together with medical advice from health professionals. Citizens will test solutions that e.g. will optimize their sleep and physical activity and home-written patients will test solutions that e.g. aim to reduce side effects. With a Danish and German city, we ensure a critical mass for the tests; test in two different health systems and cultures, and give the SMEs easier access to new markets for the benefit of the development of the program region. Through close collaboration between companies and research institutions, the quatro-helix cooperation will contribute to the commercialization of the generated research results. At the same time, ordinary citizens in the cities is included and a network established around the test trials, which will contribute to the sustainability of healthy behavioral changes. It is highly innovative to establish tech towns and cities with a focus on health technology are not to be found anywhere else in the world. The concept is thus new and allows for the collection and use of big data to a completely new extent than seen before for the benefit of the program region's citizens. Through a media partnership with TV stations NDR and DR, we will cover the developments and experiences with health technology in the two tech towns through case stories. Other media outlets e.g. Sat1 have also expressed interest in the project and they will therefore play a significant part in the communication of the project.

Achievements (EN):

The overall biggest success in NorDigHealth in 2020 has been the partners' very professional handeling of the corona virus pandemic. Even though the pandemic has interferred greatly with all of our lives, the partners have worked intensely on finding solutions for how to work across the border. We have with great pleasure seen how all partners, with no exception, have been able to continue the close work across the border by using virtuel/online meetings. The pandemic has not created the best circumstances for working across borders but the partners have made it work, even better than what could have been expected. Furthermore from the WPs the biggest successes are: - WP1: The internal structures for efficient program management with 1:1 meetings. A great risc management system as a response to Corona through which the partners have kept each other continously updated. An intense focus on involving all the network partners which has now spread to the other WPs, e.g. WP2 where a newsletter directed at the network partners has been developed. Furthermore this focus has also paved the way for further projects across regions e.g. the network project Mobile Stroke Unit. - WP2: In 2020 the biggest succes is the Danish-German press work. Overall we have had a big focus on the German press. This has resulted in an article in the Lübecker Nachrichten and in an interview in Radio Schleswig-Holstein. Furthermore, we are very pleased with our steady frequency of news on the website, Facebook and in our newsletter. 2020 has been a good build up to the final year of the project. - WP3: The great collaboration with Næstved healthcare center on designing the SMOOFF study. The qualitative study on "Mit forløb" app was sucessfully conducted,and we are ready to initiate the GoBe stydy. The network conference in february 2020 was a great succes. - WP4: All planned studies have been started with great cross-border exchange between researchers in 2020. The recruitment of the AMD study in Germany could be completed. The paraluc app was tested by healthy volunteers in 2020. Both apps - the reminder and the PARALUC apps could be tested successfully by patients in 2020. In Paraluc an additional center (Hannover) could be initiated in 2020. - WP5: A training manual for Good Clinical Practice has been uploaded by ZKS with preparation for virtual training of the doctors, UKSH Akademie has added co-creation as part of their curriculum and RUC IMT, ZKS and UKSH has made co-creation workshops on GoBe.
