Digital transformation in healthcare: an innovative business plan for an application digitizing physical rehabilitation

The health care system adapts to innovations very slowly, as strict rules control all measures. It is even more challenging when one wants to introduce a digital solution for the healthcare market. Even minor changes to the code can mean major hurdles for approvals. This challenge was taken up in the following master thesis. The status quo of gait analysis has hardly been innovated for decades. The approach of reha buddy is to analyze how a human walks through wireless sensors. This represents an innovation that will revolutionize the market for gait analysis. Above all, trends of the last two years, which were pushed even more by the last pandemic, have shown that there is probably no better time to pursue this project. Additionally, a literature review and expert interviews were conducted to support all statements in the thesis. What is more, for a precise examination of each chapter of the business plan, a market analysis was carried out focusing on all specific characteristics of the health care market. The team of reha buddy has to overcome some major obstacles in the next few years but is well-positioned with their team of experts who set some important milestones for managing those hurdles. The result of this work is a business plan which clarifies that reha buddy's vision has an entrepreneurial foundation and that the team's idea should be pursued.O Sistema de Saúde adapta-se às inovações muito lentamente, uma vez que regras rígidas controlam todas as medidas. É um desafio ainda maior quando se deseja introduzir uma solução digital no setor da Saúde. Mesmo pequenas alterações no código podem significar grandes dificuldades para aprovações. Este desafio é abordado na presente tese de mestrado. O status quo da locomoção praticamente não foi inovado durante décadas. A abordagem do Reha Buddy passa por analisar como um humano se desloca através de sensores sem fios, o que representa uma inovação que irá revolucionar o mercado da locomoção. Acima de tudo, as tendências dos últimos dois anos, que foram impulsionadas ainda mais pela última pandemia, mostraram que provavelmente não há melhor momento para avançar com este projeto. Foi realizada uma revisão de literatura, assim como entrevistas com especialistas com o objetivo de apoiar todas as afirmações. Adicionalmente, para uma análise eficaz de cada capítulo do plano de negócios, foi realizada uma análise de mercado com foco em todas as características específicas do mercado da Saúde. A equipa do Reha Buddy terá que superar alguns obstáculos importantes nos próximos anos; está, no entanto, bem posicionada com a sua equipa de especialistas que estabeleceu alguns marcos importantes para gerir esses obstáculos. O resultado do presente projeto é um plano de negócios que esclarece que a visão do Reha Buddy tem uma base empreendedora e que a ideia apresentada pela equipa deve ser concretizada

Digital gods: The making of a medical fact for rural diagnostic software

The chronic shortage of doctors in rural India seriously impacts the quality of health care available to villagers. In recent years, there has been considerable excitement in digital diagnostics as a possible answer to this situation by allowing non-doctors to diagnose and treat patients. In this article, the author focuses on one such diagnostic tool that has gained serious traction among transnational health foundations and state governments alike. The focus is on the customization and localization of this software through a pilot study in central Himalayas. A baseline survey and extensive interviews are conducted for categorization and population of health data content. This entailed analyzing the segmentation and transfer of health information on disease history and symptoms from the patient to the software as well as situating this study in

Forming Cleveland: A Visual Arts, Craft and Design Industry Study - Executive Summary

Visual arts, craft and design are a large part of our daily lives, which are inundated with images not only through museums or private collections, but also through product consumption. Art penetrates our environments and can inspire collective action. The creative process inspires us to think about new concepts, applications, and markets for stimulating innovation. In order to position greater Cleveland's visual arts, craft and design sector for continued growth, the community needs to understand the strengths and challenges facing the sector. Forming Cleveland provides a foundation of research to achieve this aim as well as spur discussions about how to strengthen the sector in its role as an innovator for our region. CPAC and Cleveland State University partnered to explore the visual arts, craft and design industry in this study. It includes eight case studies on how the visual arts, craft and design industry is impacting our city's landscape and vision for our future

Cyber-threats against the Norwegian financial sector

Technological development affects most of the industries in the world, and the Norwegian financial sector is no exception. We use our digital tools every day, and these tools make footsteps of personal information. Norway is one of the most digitalized countries, and digitalization has brought new ways of thinking and made the sector more effective. However, this also brings new challenges with new vulnerabilities and risks. All this has made a need for understanding and managing cyber-risk. This thesis investigates how the Norwegian financial sector handles the risk of losing personal information when drawing on cyber-attacks by performing a content analysis based on relevant documents and articles. Discussion and analysis of the dominant documents and articles contribute to achieving the thesis goal of answering the research question. We do this intending to generate awareness of the cyber-risk in the sector when it comes to handling personal information. Additionally, we aim to create an understanding and knowledge base of the topic to understand the development better and be capable of being resilient to this type of risk. The content analysis of cyber-risk and cyber-threat in this thesis reveals that the risk of losing personal information is in constant flux. The reason is compound, but the analysis shows that our main findings can summarize it; Implementation and enactment of complexity in existing material, Speedy development and an arduous environment, and Endorsement of robustness, relicense, and redundancy. We were especially boggled over the neglection of integrating complexity as a risk in both the current NIST-framework and the ISO27001 standard. Also, the rapid development of technology and different types of actors may force the sector to take measures, but the long value chains increase the complexity
