Heart Health

Early detection of heart disease
Early detection of heart disease
Information about the study

Several international prospective, randomized and blinded studies and a registry study are investigating whether a three-dimensional derivation of the cardiac current curve with subsequent AI-based analysis can assess the risk of people suffering from a circulatory disorder of the heart. This is a medical device.

A large field study funded by the NHS is taking place in the UK. Inclusion is via physicians, after which follow-up is either on-site or contactless digital, depending on clinical need.

AFORCE-1

Markers for the early diagnosis of cancer growth
Markers for the early diagnosis of cancer growth
Information about the study

The purpose of this multicenter, prospective, group-controlled cancer screening study is to evaluate whether a new blood test is suitable to distinguish malignant tumors (cancers) from other tumors/diseases and control subjects.

The AFORCE-1 study aims to test the accuracy of this blood test before it can later be used in diagnostics. Patients with suspected tumors (10 most common tumor types) and healthy volunteers are included in the study. The development of the suspected tumor will be monitored over a period of 12 months and compared with the result of the blood test for early cancer detection at the end of the study.

The study was positively evaluated by the Colorectal Cancer Study Board of the German Cancer Society on 05.04.2024. It thus fulfills the criteria for recognition of the study within the certification system and is listed in studybox(www.studybox.de). The registration number is: ST-U178.

ORSOME-II Study

Digital application for knee rehabilitation
Digital application for knee rehabilitation
Information about the study

This nationwide scientific study will test whether rehabilitation after surgical treatment of a knee joint injury with a digital application in addition to physical therapy alone is better than physical therapy alone (current standard of care).

The digital application is a medical device that enhances knee rehabilitation through a combination of tests, a training program and a knowledge database. The app consists of a movement sensor and an app and enables supplementary, independent and flexible continuation of knee joint rehabilitation from home. Inclusion takes place via doctors, after which follow-up is digital.
