Abstract:
To design effective and safe IT systems for healthcare is a significant technical and societal challenge, and it is of highest importance to confirm safety of patients when implementing new innovations. It would be beneficial if new innovations could be verified and validated in a realistic and safe digital environment using data that preserve patient integrity and safety, before going into real clinical trials and market release. In this article we introduce and describe Virtuality - Virtual Care Process Simulator, a concept for realistic simulation of healthcare scenarios in a digital sandbox environment using synthetic health data. The concept represents a safe environment to develop, test and prepare systems and digital tools for usage in healthcare.
