Patient-to-Pipeline: Regulatory-Compliant Clinical Data Collection
Fraunhofer Gesellschaft Zur Forderung Der Angewandten Forschung Ev (Fraunhofer)
**Who Can Benefit:** - MedTech & AI Companies: For obtaining high-quality, ethically sourced clinical datasets to fuel algorithm development without navigating hospital bureaucracy. - Clinical Researchers: For systematic, regulation-compliant data collection with full documentation and audit trail. **Key Features:** - End-to-end management of ethical approval processes (ethics committee submission, informed consent design) - Prospective data collection within Universitätsklinikum Erlangen clinical departments - Expert clinical annotation and ground truth labeling by domain specialists - Full GDPR compliance with pseudonymization/anonymization pipelines - Structured data output compatible with downstream AI training and analysis workflows **Possible Applications:** - Wearable Sensor Studies (e.g. Cardiology): Prospective collection of continuous ECG, PPG, or blood pressure data from cardiac patients for digital biomarker development and remote monitoring algorithm training. - Motion & Gait Analysis (Biomechanics): Systematic acquisition of IMU, force plate, and motion capture data in clinical and sports lab settings for movement disorder assessment, rehabilitation tracking, or athletic performance evaluation. - Neurological Signal Acquisition: Collection of EEG, EMG, or tremor sensor data from neurological patient cohorts to support AI-based diagnostic or therapy monitoring tools. - Real-World Evidence Datasets: Longitudinal data collection from ambulatory patients in everyday settings, enabling the development of algorithms that generalize beyond controlled lab environments. - Athletic Performance & Injury Prevention: Structured data gathering during sports science testing protocols to build datasets for injury risk prediction, load monitoring, and return-to-play decision support. - Multi-Modal Clinical Datasets: Combined collection of sensor data, imaging, lab values, and patient-reported outcomes to enable holistic, multi-modal AI model development. **Who We Are:** The **Fraunhofer Insitute for Integrated Circuits (Fraunhofer IIS)** has established the **"Center for Sensor Technology and Digital Medicine" (CEMDIS)** in cooperation with the Universitätsklinikum Erlangen and the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) to enhance modern healthcare through **innovative sensor technology** and **digital solutions**. This center focuses on integrating **innovative medical technologies** such as **wearables** and **robotic systems** to support **medical diagnostics**, **patient monitoring** and **evaluating patient-specific therapies** by providing digital health solutions für real-life healthcare. Located at the Universitätsklinikum Erlangen, it offers unique infrastructures for the **development**, **integration**, and **validation** of novel health technologies, providing companies opportunities for **technological advancements**.
