MEDICA 2022 – Düsseldorf, Germany
More than 81,000 visitors from various sectors of the global healthcare industry came to Düsseldorf, Germany, to attend MEDICA 2022 from 14 – 17 November 2022. A total of more than 5,000 exhibitors from 70 nations offered them a variety of innovations for modern outpatient and clinical care – including all components, products and processes for their development and production.
Digitalization of Healthcare
As expected, digitalization of healthcare and the demand for smart processes occupied a reasonable space in the agenda. Visitors to MEDICA 2022 were offered a range of innovations and technology in the fields of medical devices, diagnostics, medical services and healthcare technology. They also had the opportunity to learn about the latest developments in digitalization at the MEDICA CONNECTED HEALTHCARE FORUM conference as well as through direct experience in the MEDICA START-UP PARK. The 11th MEDICA START-UP COMPETITION was won in the final pitch by IDOVEN from Spain with an AI-supported ECG analysis platform.
Promising new technologies
The unique range of novel medical technologies presented by start-ups at MEDICA 2022 included a palm-sized system for wireless monitoring of the unborn, ultrasound heads with special contour-fitting capabilities, and numerous other solutions based on artificial intelligence (AI), such as for the precise diagnosis of neurocognitive disorders based on eye movements or the simplified keeping of electronic medical records.
