Innovative Secure Medical Campus

Innovative Secure Medical Campus of the University Hospital Bonn

In cooperation with the Cyber Security Cluster, the University Hospital Bonn (UKB) has launched the innovative "Innovative Secure Medical Campus" (ISMC) digitalization project, which is unique in Germany. ISMC will run for three years and is supported by the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Innovation, Digitalization and Energy of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia with funding of up to 17.5 million euros. The state competence platform for artificial intelligence KI.NRW is the patron of the project and has included the ISMC in its AI flagship initiative.

Using state-of-the-art technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), 5G and surgical robotics, the UKB is pioneering a medical campus of the future with its Innovative Secure Medical Campus. This involves a secure, comprehensive digitalization solution that optimizes the diagnosis and treatment of patients, including robotic surgery, as well as general processes, e.g. Smart Parking Patient Journey on campus between the various departments of the UKB. The testing of new digital processes in patient care should also benefit other clinics in the future and contribute to the modernization of the German healthcare system.

The topics of the ISMC can be divided into three
three main categories:

Process optimization/digitalization
along the patient journey

AI integration in
diagnosis and therapy

Cyber Security
by Design

At the UKB's BOSTER, the future of surgery is being researched and developed with the help of the latest technologies.

Bonn Surgical Technology Center

In addition to the activities directly on the UKB campus, the ISMC is also dedicated to the development of the Bonn Surgical Technology Center (BOSTER), a technology location and hub of the UKB on the Bonner Bogen. As part of the ISMC, a place is being created here where innovation is thought through and ultimately researched right up to the operating theater or patient bedside.

Surgical medicine at the UKB will be both a pioneer and a transformation channel from vision to implementation - from code to bedside, so to speak.

Presentation of the "Innovative Secure Medical Campus" at Bonn University Hospital

The "Innovative Secure Medical Campus" (ISMC) was presented today at the University Hospital Bonn (UKB). The ISMC project will make the UKB one of the digital pioneers in the healthcare sector. Mona Neubaur, Minister for Economic Affairs, Industry, Climate Protection and Energy of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia, was welcomed by Prof. Wolfgang Holzgreve, Medical Director and Chairman of the Board of the UKB, and was able to gain an insight into a digitalized and secure medical campus with innovative digital patient guidance (Patient Journey) at the UKB. The minister was particularly interested in the AI-supported nursing and surgical robotics with XR (extended reality) and was able to experience parts of the patient journey via a ride in the autonomous shuttle pod. The live link to the UKB's Cyber Security Operation Center highlighted the importance of cyber security and the effective protection mechanisms for a university medical maximum care provider.
