New, effective solutions for the protection of medical and personal data of children diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are offered by the research project AURORA MINDS, which he completed with Success DOTSOFT SA, in collaboration with University of Ioannina.
Responding to the risks of privacy breach and leakage of critical information, DOTSOFT AE designed and developed an innovative digital health platform. This platform leverages advanced technology solutions to protect privacy, such as federal learning and self-sovereign identity management, to ensure that sensitive health data is adequately protected.
The project AURORA MINDS has significant benefits for parents, teachers and clinicians.
According to the specified specifications, the parents register their child diagnosed with ADHD on the platform in question, by filling out a relevant questionnaire. Subsequently, they gain access to a special application, which collects behavioral data from the children’s parallel interaction with interactive games through tablets. The relevant data is transferred securely to a dedicated server for analysis.
Clinicians have access to the relevant information, so that they can make a better diagnosis and more effective planning of the appropriate treatment. All processed data are stored securely and individual users have access to them based on strict credentials.
A comparative advantage of the platform, over other applications, is the adoption of strong protection measures. In this way, data security is strengthened, access to sensitive information is strictly controlled and compliance with the requirements of the GDPR is ensured.
Therefore, the AURORA MINDS project responds to the challenges of modern healthcare, offering decentralized solutions that can be extended to other mental health areas, such as autism and learning disabilities.
“AURORA MINDS is not just a new digital health platform. It represents our commitment to creating a safe and friendly environment in which children with attention deficit disorder and their families can feel protected and supported. At the same time, health professionals are gaining new, modern tools for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment,” said the president and CEO of DOTSFOT AE, Anastassios Manos.
A key role in supporting the project was played by the TrustChain consortium, which is made up of eight (8) highly technical organizations from seven (7) European countries. This consortium has provided blockchain infrastructures that enhance data governance and ensure user confidence while providing decentralized data handling capability.
It is noted that the AURORA MINDS project platform will continue to expand with new programmed functions, such as additional diagnostic tools and Internet of Things data integration.
