In the emerging field of digital public health, clearly defining interventions is key to advancing prevention and health promotion. The article by Julian Wienert and his team offers an innovative framework that combines WHO and NICE models, integrating a user-centered participatory approach. At LifeVit, we are aligned with this vision, developing technologies that not only monitor health continuously, but also promote active user participation to maximize their impact on public health. 🔗 Read the full article and find out more about how digitalization is transforming public health.

"The value of data and the quality of insights for future healthcare research and innovation depend on ease of access and data availability. Greater transparency and access to health data will transform research and innovation, shaping how we predict and prevent avoidable diseases," writes Elaine Murray, Public Affairs Lead at EIT Health Ireland-UK in an article for Mediaplanet's #PowerOfData campaign.   Read on to find out more about the EU’s legislative push, particularly the European Health Data Space (EHDS), which aims to provide secure, cross-border access to health data: https://lnkd.in/eZSuFjmA #DataDrivenHealthcare #HealthcareInnovation #DigitalHealth #EU Susan Treacy BSc., M.Med.Sc., PG Dip.

High-quality #laboratoryservices are the unsung heroes of effective health systems, playing a crucial role in guiding treatment decisions, combating #antimicrobialresistance, and monitoring emerging health threats. Yet despite their critical importance, laboratories, particularly in low- and middle-income countries, often struggle due to weak operational infrastructure, unreliable #supplychains, and a general scarcity of resources and expertise. I had the privilege of collaborating recently with colleagues from @Mott MacDonald and @ICF on an insightful action report, "Why Laboratory Investment Matters: Rethinking the Role of Laboratory Services in Global Health," that sheds light on these challenges and presents viable solutions for addressing them. Our report—which was presented at a recent one-day conference in Washington, DC, sponsored by @Management Sciences for Health, Mott MacDonald and ICF—stresses the importance of integrating laboratory networks, fostering partnerships with the private sector, professionalizing the sector, and ensuring equitable access to clinical services as pivotal steps toward improvement. In the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, the #globalhealth community has increasingly recognized the imperative of establishing and maintaining strong laboratory and diagnostic capacities worldwide. This moment presents a unique opportunity to turn our good intentions into concrete, impactful investments throughout the healthcare system. By working together, we can fortify laboratory services and build a healthier future for all.

“Although significant progress has been made over the last several years to introduce more standardization and connectivity between public health and health care IT systems, more work is needed. This commentary describes the benefits and potential of robust, modern interoperability between health care and public health systems, defines key policies and technology activities that will drive toward a future state of a highly connected public health and health care data ecosystem, and summarizes potential challenges that must be overcome.”
