PhD students of the Institute of Translational Medicine, Dr. Flóra Antali and Dr. Dániel Kulin shared the main prize of the Most Innovative Lecture of the DOSZ Health Sciences and Innovation Conference. In accordance with the epidemiological measures, the ceremony was held with a limited number of participants, during which Dr. Péter Ferdinandy, Vice-Rector for Science and Innovation of Semmelweis University, awarded the main prize to the recipients.
The most innovative presentations were awarded at the first DOSZ Health Sciences and Innovation Conference organized by the Association of Hungarian PhD Students (DOSZ) and the Doctoral Students’ Union of Semmelweis University.
Based on the abstracts presented in the event, the main prize of the Most Innovative Lecture and the accompanying Semmelweis University 250 commemorative medal was awarded to two PhD students of the Institute of Translational Medicine, Dr. Flóra Antali and Dr. Dániel Kulin as a recognition of their presentations on their research about the SCN4ALL (Scan for All) telemedicine system (preparatory teacher: Dr. Zsuzsanna Miklós, Assistant Professor at the Institute of Translational Medicine).
The SCN4ALL telemedicine system enables regular monitoring of the cardiovascular system, which can easily be done at home as well. The reliability of the telemedicine system is currently being studied in several patient groups (e.g. disorders related to gestational pathology, cardiovascular patients, post-COVID patients). The cardiovascular parameters of patients recovered from COVID-19 infection are being monitored by GPs as part of an ongoing project approved by the Operational Staff.
Dr. Dániel Kulin presented the results of an article already published at the conference (“Preclinical, Multi-Aspect Assessment of the Reliability of a Photoplethysmography-Based Telemonitoring System to Track Cardiovascular Status”), which includes an examination of the reliability of the SCN4ALL system. Dr. Flóra Antali presented the results of an article currently under review on the verification of HRV (heart rate variability) values in the SCN4ALL system.
