    Designing a User Study to Evaluate the Feasibility of Icons for the Elderly
    (Mensch & Computer 2011: überMEDIEN|ÜBERmorgen, 2011) Mertens, Alexander; Koch-Körfges, David; Schlick, Christopher M.
    During employment of icons in order to represent system functions, specific user requirements from elderly people have not been scientifically gathered and thus will merely be considered during the process of system design. The survey, with explicit consideration of technology acceptance and experience of 120 elderly probands, looked into the comprehension of four different classes of nonanimated graphical representations. It was shown that among elderly, the use of photos compared to pictograms or clip art leads to a significantly higher recognition rate. The mapping of actions rather than objects leads to a further reduction of the error probability and is thus, especially in the context of telemedicine, preferable for the target group.

    Expertise in die Fläche bringen: Analyse der Covid-19-Telekonsile und szenariobasierte Handlungsempfehlungen
    (HMD Praxis der Wirtschaftsinformatik: Vol. 59, No. 6, 2022) Neft, Florian; Kappler, Karolin Eva; Dohmen, Sandra Maria; Juhra, Christian; Sperling, Kathrin; Bause, Daniela; Smolnik, Stefan
    Das Auftreten der unbekannten Krankheit Covid-19 und die steigenden Covid-19-Fallzahlen stellten das Gesundheitswesen vor Herausforderungen. Die Häuser der Allgemeinversorgung waren bis dato größtenteils nicht mit der Behandlung eines schweren Lungenversagens vertraut und so musste dieses Wissen aus den Expertenzentren in die Häuser der Allgemeinversorgung transferiert werden. Dazu wurden im Rahmen der Vorstufe des Virtuellen Krankenhauses Nordrhein-Westfalen (VKh.NRW) Telekonsile genutzt. Sie finden zwischen zwei Ärzten der Intensivmedizin statt, stellen ortsunabhängig Expertenwissen bereit und erhöhen so die Behandlungsqualität sowie -effizienz. In der Evaluation dieser Telekonsile zeigen sich unterschiedliche Nutzungsszenarien. Während zu Beginn größtenteils allgemeine Diagnose- und Therapiewege von Interesse waren, kamen später detailliertere Fragen auf, für die unter anderem ein Pharmakologe notwendig war. Dieser Anwendungsfall bedarf mehr explizites Wissen, Patienteninformationen und damit erhöhte Technologieanforderungen. Im Rahmen der technischen Infrastruktur zeigen sich allerdings Barrieren. Daher wird evaluiert, welches Wissen in den unterschiedlichen Anwendungsfällen der Telekonsile ausgetauscht wird und welche technologischen Voraussetzungen erfüllt sein müssen, damit Telekonsile stärker zur Verwendung kommen und das Gesundheitswesen gleichermaßen entlasten und verbessern. The emergence of the unknown disease COVID-19 and the increasing number of COVID-19 cases challenged the health system. General, standard care hospitals were largely unfamiliar with the treatment of severe respiratory failure up to then, and so this knowledge had to be transferred from university hospitals to standard care ones. Therefore, intensive care physicians within the preliminary stage of the virtual hospital North Rhine-Westphalia (VKh.NRW) used teleconsultations. Teleconsultations occur between two intensive care physicians, make expertise anywhere available and increase treatment quality and efficiency. The evaluation of these teleconsultations shows different scenarios. Whereas initially, the enquirers largely addressed general diagnostic and therapy question regarding the COVID-19 treatment, they arose more detailed questions later, necessitating a specialist, such as a pharmacologist. This scenario demands more explicit knowledge, and, thus, increased technology requirements. Barriers appear in the context of this technical infrastructure. Therefore, we evaluate which knowledge is transferred within different teleconsultation scenarios and which technology requirements must be fulfilled to increase the use of teleconsultation and, thus, improve the health system.

    @HOME: A modular telemedicine system
    (Mobile Computing in Medicine, Second Conference on Mobile Computing in Medicine, Workshop of the Project Group MoCoMed, GMDS-Fachbereich Medizinische Informatik & GI-Fachausschuss 4.7, 2002) Sachpazidis, I.
    In that paper we will describe a system for remotely monitoring of patients at home from the doctors at the hospital. In general, the @Home [AtH02] system can measure, collect, analyze and record health care data at a patient's home and then subsequently send these data to the hospital using the global system for mobile communications (GSM) or PSTN telephone line. The paper is organized as follows: In section 1, a brief introduction of the @home project is exposed. In section 2, the overall architecture of the system is shown. Finally, the paper concludes in section 3, stating the clinical trials and the benefits of the project.

    Living and Aging in Place in a Smart Neighborhood: Towards Development and Evaluation of a Digital Health Concept
    (INFORMATIK 2024, 2024) Hölzer, Sabrina; Schmidt, Lucie; Preßler, Wesley; Erfurth, Christian
    This report outlines the development and evaluation of a Digital Health concept aimed at enhancing the health and well-being of residents in an urban district, thereby facilitating "Healthy Living and Aging in Place." The concept includes the integration of various digital health solutions such as a physical and virtual telemedicine room, including a telehealth kiosk, care apartments, ambient assisted living device offerings, and community management services, which aim to promote digital and eHealth literacy through training sessions. Initial results indicate positive feedback from residents, yet concerns regarding implementation and use cases have been noted. The insights gained provide a foundation for the implementation of similar concepts in other urban areas or their adaptation to rural settings.
