A Standardized Treatment Pathway for Telehealth-Based Care of Chronic Wounds in Austria
Stud Health Technol Inform. 2024 Apr 26;313:186-191. doi: 10.3233/SHTI240035.ABSTRACTChronic wounds present a significant healthcare challenge in Austria as well as in other countries. The interdisciplinary approach to wound treatment involving various caregivers, doctors, and relatives, poses challenges in documentation and information exchange. To overcome these barriers and promote patient-centered care, a new telehealth-supported treatment pathway for chronic wounds has been developed. The primary focus was to regularly update the status of the chronic wound by responding to predefined questions and transmitted images ...

Exploring Opportunities for Clinical Data Warehouse Enhancement Through Data Catalog Integration
Stud Health Technol Inform. 2024 Apr 26;313:198-202. doi: 10.3233/SHTI240037.ABSTRACTSecondary use of clinical health data implies a prior integration of mostly heterogenous and multidimensional data sets. A clinical data warehouse addresses the technological and organizational framework conditions required for this, by making any data available for analysis. However, users of a data warehouse often do not have a comprehensive overview of all available data and only know about their own data in their own systems - a situation which is also referred to as 'data siloed state'. This problem can be addressed and ultimately sol...

Quality and Effectiveness of AI Tools for Students and Researchers for Scientific Literature Review and Analysis
This study scrutinizes free AI tools tailored for supporting literature review and analysis in academic research, emphasizing their response to direct inquiries. Through a targeted keyword search, we cataloged relevant AI tools and evaluated their output variation and source validity. Our results reveal a spectrum of response qualities, with some tools integrating non-academic sources and others depending on outdated information. Notably, most tools showed a lack of transparency in source selection. Our study highlights two key limitations: the exclusion of commercial AI tools and the focus solely on tools that accept dire...
