pHealth 2010 - 7th International Conference on Wearable Micro and Nano Technologies for Personalized health
Since 2004, the pHealth conference has been an international meeting dedicated to wearable micro and nano technologies for personalized medicine.
Microsystems, smart textiles, telemedicine, smart implants and sensor-controlled medical devices have become important enablers for monitoring and treatment in both inpatient and outpatient care. This is, however, just the beginning of revolutionary changes and significant opportunities are given for the three stakeholders: patients, companies and the healthcare industry.
The multilateral benefits of pHealth technologies for all three stakeholders lead to a triple win situation with enormous potential, not only for medical quality improvement and industrial competitiveness, but also for managing healthcare cost.
The event's target audience is made up of scientists for various technologies, medical doctors, policy makers from the healthcare industry, hospital administration and allied professionals. The organisers are looking forward to high-level scientific information, pragmatic best practice examples and active discussions between researchers, medical doctors and professionals in an inspiring atmosphere.
The conference focus topics this year are as follows:Â
- Telemedicine in cardiovascular disease - now delivering
- Smart endoscopic capsules - preventing digestive cancers
- Ambient Assisted Living - ensuring health & mobility of an aging population
- Smart therapeutic implants - restoring function, preserving health
- Smart textiles and wearable diagnostic sensors - 24/7 health surveillance
- pHealth in surgery - smart devices for improved outcomes
- Patient monitoring and point of care diagnostics - prerequisites for personalized care
- Advanced imaging for personalized therapies - molecular imaging and model-based personalized therapy
- Data management - patient safety in wearable technologies and personalized medicine
- The economics of personalized health care - the triple win situationÂ
