DiDiER Digitized Services in Dietary Counseling for People with Increased Health Risks related to Malnutrition

Goal

Services that were in the past provided mainly in the direct

interaction between customer and service provider based on expert

knowledge, can be significantly improved and in turn lead to a quantum

leap for patients (quality of counseling) and consultants (effectiveness

and efficiency) through the use of sensor based IT. However, new

technologies must also reflect the concern of the citizens against

misuse of their data. This is especially true if comprehensive movement

and nutritional profiles are created, even if this is done for the

purpose of health care, as in the case of dietary counseling for

patients at risk.

The objective of the DiDiER project is to significantly improve the

quality of advice by service providers in the field of nutrition

counseling by making patient and service relevant information available

in digital form. By this digitization, the consultant can better prepare

for the individual patient, as data is available sooner and without

subjective bias. Patients as well as consultants will benefit from

access to external knowledge bases. This concept is concretely

implemented in two use cases: In dietary counseling for food

intolerances / allergies, and in the presence of frailty in geriatric

patients. To meet the informational self-determination, the data remains

with the patient, who can permit his advisors to perform analyses of

the data by means of so-called "smart services".

An essential aspect is the strengthening of informational

self-determination, which will be addressed by a reversal of the

"classic" application model: Instead of delivering the data to central

processing servers in the "Cloud" for processing and then returning the

results to the user, this process will be reversed. The data will remain

with the customer, and personalized algorithms – “Smart Services” –

come to the customer and process the data in their personal "Home Cloud"

IT environment specially developed for security, without being able to

make the customer’s data available externally. In this way, customers

retain full control of their data.
