“…Asociando la conceptualización de innovación en salud a una transformación en la cultura organizativa de las organizaciones del sector. En el proceso de revisión, se identificó que la mayoría de autores convergen en conceptualizar la innovación en salud como el conjunto de nuevos comportamientos, rutinas y formas de trabajo que están dirigidos a mejorar los servicios de salud, su eficiencia administrativa o su rentabilidad organizativa (Rocha, et al, 2013;Ugurluoglu, et al, 2012;Best, et al, 2012;Barnett, et al, 2011;Dixon-Woods, et al, 2011;Weber, 2009;Länsisalmi, et al, 2006;Albury, 2005;Greenhalght et al, 2005) y que son ejecutadas de manera coordinada para mejorar la experiencia de servicio del usuario (Siriwardena & Gillam, 2014). En general, los autores revisados asocian el concepto de innovación en salud a la implementación de tres tipos de innovación: Innovación en productos, haciendo referencia a las iniciativas que entregan un valor superior a los usuarios a través de un bien o un servicio (Damanpour, et al, 2009;Varkey, Horne & Bennet, 2008).…”

DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.15665/rde.v15i1.559 JEL: I11, I18, O38 RESUMEN El uso de innovaciones en el sector salud se han difundido ampliamente en las últimas décadas, con el objetivo de entregar nuevo conocimiento para los directivos de las organizaciones que permita generar estrategias adecuadas para enfrentar los retos que plantea el contexto actual en cuanto a sostenibilidad, accesibilidad y cobertura universal del servicio de salud. En este artículo se realiza una revisión de literatura sobre el tópico innovación en salud, la cual integra la perspectiva médica con la perspectiva de otras ciencias, con el propósito de identificar consensos y divergencias en la conceptualización de la innovación en salud, identificar aportes sobre el proceso necesario para desarrollar innovaciones en las organizaciones de salud y finalmente, identificar tendencias investigativas sobre el tópico. Los principales resultados evidencian la necesidad de profundizar desde la perspectiva teórica y empírica en la identificación de prácticas y herramientas que faciliten la implementación de la innovación en el sector salud, para transformarlo en un sector dinámico, rentable y humanizado. Palabras clave: Innovación, sector salud, tendencias en salud. ABSTRACTThe use of innovation in the health sector has spread widely in the past decades, with the objective of disseminating new knowledge for the managers of organizations that facilitate the generation of appropriate strategies to face the challenges that arise in the actual context regarding sustainability, accessibility and universal health coverage. In this article, a literature review was done on the topic of innovation in health which integrates the medical perspective with that other sciences with the purpose of identify consensus and divergence the conceptualization health innovation, identifying at contributes to the process that necessary for innovation development in health organizations and finally identifying research trends about health innovation. The main results show the need for a deeper understanding of the theoretical and empirical research in the identification of practices and tools that facilitate the implementation of innovation in the health sector in order to transform the sector into one which is dynamic, profitable and human center.

“…Apart from commercial systems, numerous EU projects focus on monitoring the vital signs of (elderly) patients, mostly at home [19][20][21][22][23]: OLDES (Older People's e-Services at Home), CAALYX (Complete Ambient Assisting Living Experiment), K4CARE (Knowledge-based Home Care eServices for an Aging Europe), ENABLE(a wearable system supporting services to enable elderly people to live well, independently and at ease), SOPRANO (Service-Oriented Programmable Smart Environments for Older Europeans), REACTION (Remote Accessibility to Diabetes Management and Therapy in Operational Healthcare Networks), INHOME(an intelligent interactive services environment for assisted living at home), MonAMI (Mainstreaming on Ambient Intelligence) and Hydra (networked embedded system middleware for heterogeneous physical devices in a distributed architecture). These platforms transmit data on the health status, risk assessments and self-management incitements from sensors and devices at the patient's home to health-care professionals, informal carers and emergency and crisis management teams.…”

A major challenge related to caring for patients with chronic conditions is the early detection of exacerbations of the disease. Medical personnel should be contacted immediately in order to intervene in time before an acute state is reached, ensuring patient safety. This paper proposes an approach to an ambient intelligence (AmI) framework supporting real-time remote monitoring of patients diagnosed with congestive heart failure (CHF). Its novelty is the integration of: (i) personalized monitoring of the patients health status and risk stage; (ii) intelligent alerting of the dedicated physician through the construction of medical workflows on-the-fly; and (iii) dynamic adaptation of the vital signs' monitoring environment on any available device or smart phone located in close proximity to the physician depending on new medical measurements, additional disease specifications or the failure of the infrastructure. The intelligence lies in the adoption of semantics providing for a personalized and automated emergency alerting that smoothly interacts with the physician, regardless of his location, ensuring timely intervention during an emergency.Sensors 2014, 14 1599It is evaluated on a medical emergency scenario, where in the case of exceeded patient thresholds, medical personnel are localized and contacted, presenting ad hoc information on the patient's condition on the most suited device within the physician's reach.

“…Increased healthcare service demands and economic challenges facing an already overworked healthcare system have led to the urgent need for effective, scalable, sustainable and innovative healthcare services (Rocha et al 2013;Barnett et al 2011;Pinto and Baracsi 2012). Technology development and digitalisation are seen as key responses to the increased requirements of cost effectiveness and quality improvements in healthcare systems and services (European Commission 2012;Agarwal et al 2010); digitalisation can even revolutionise healthcare delivery (Parente 2000).…”

Digitalisation can revolutionise healthcare delivery and provide new business opportunities for innovative start-ups. Start-up businesses in the healthcare service sector are a promising source of new employment and innovations. The start-up stage is the most critical period for the survival of a business, as decisions made during the early stages have a definitive influence on success. This study seeks to clarify the early development of eHealth service start-ups. To summarise the research problem, the authors ask the following question: What are the critical incidents related to the early development of eHealth service start-ups? The units of analysis in this study are 14 Nordic eHealth service start-ups located in Sweden and Finland. The Critical Incident Technique (cit) and semi-structured interviews were applied for data collection. The results are of interest to the public sector, which plays an essential role in healthcare as a service producer, but also as a creator of the business conditions of and opportunities for small businesses.
