FHIR Implementation Guide with open source tools

FHIR Implementation Guide developed with the FHIR Shorthand language that allows for the documentation, validation, and distribution of FHIR specifications. It does this without needing vendors, using open-source reference technologies in software development. With strict version control, it is adaptable to a company's standard procedures and technologies to provide robust, long-term and scalable documentation.

Interoperable platform for monitoring patients with obesity

HealthTracker is a distributed patient tracking platform that uses Angular and Spring Framework to standardize health data. It features a patient mobile app and a professional panel feeding data through a standardization service that converts it to the FHIR standard with SNOMED CT encoding. User authentication is managed by JWT tokens. All standardized data is stored in an Azure FHIR Repository for interoperable use.

Classifying pathologies using acoustic voice analysis

In this project, a method for detecting pathological subjects from the acoustic voice signal is presented. Many factors are involved in the act of phonation, so the voice can show the presence of diseases of various kinds. The development of new diagnostic systems based on voice analysis can offer advantages like simplicity and harmlessness.

  • Projects
Spanish Security Framework Common framework of basic principles, requirements and security measures for the adequate protection of the information processed and the services provided, with the aim of ensuring access, confidentiality, integrity, traceability, authenticity, availability and conservation of the data, information and services used by electronic means that they manage in the exercise of their competences. (Royal Decree 311/2022, of 3 May, National Security Framework)
VEMoS European Project VEMoS Project for presurgical decision support in refractive surgery. It assists doctors and patients, improving prediction, reducing adverse effects, and enhancing patient satisfaction. The multidisciplinary consortium (Vissum Grupo Miranza and CSO) collaborated on development and high-tech hardware, with validation by reference centers Aarhus Universitetshospital and Centro Hospitalar e Universitario de Coimbra.
RESAMPLE European ProjectRE-SAMPLE project (REal-time data monitoring for Shared, Adaptive, Multi-domain and Personalised prediction and decision making for Long-term Pulmonary care Ecosystems) primary goal is to transform the management of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and co-existing Complex Chronic Conditions (CCCs). The project uses real-world data (RWD) and privacy-preserving Artificial Intelligence (AI) to create predictive models that monitor symptoms beyond routine check-ups.
