Tele-rehabilitation at home is one of the promising approaches in increasing rehabilitative success and simultaneously decreasing the
financial burden on the healthcare system. Objectives: Novel and mostly mobile devices are already in use, but shall be used in the future to a higher extent for allowing at home rehabilitation processes at a high quality level. The combination of exercises, assessments and available equipment is the basic objective of the
presented database. Methods: The database has been structured in order to allow easy-to-use and fast access for the three main user groups. Therapists – looking for exercise and equipment combinations – patients – rechecking their tasks for home exercises – and manufacturers – entering their equipment for specific use cases.
Results: The database has been evaluated by a proof of concept study and shows a high degree of applicability for the field of rehabilitative medicine. Currently it contains 110 exercises/assessments and 111 equipment/systems. Conclusion: Foundations of presented database are already established in the rehabilitative field of application, but can and will be enhanced in its functionality to be usable for a higher variety of medical fields and specificatios.

Equipping rooms used for medical purposes, like e.g., intensive care units,
is an expensive and time-consuming task. In order to avoid extensive subsequent
adjustments due to inappropriate layout visualization or geometric conditions
difficult to identify in 2D plans, it is of utmost importance to provide an optimal
planning environment to future users such as physicians and nurses. In this paper
we present the concept of a fully automatized pipeline, which is designed to
visualize computer aided design (CAD) data using virtual reality (VR). The
immersive VR experience results in improvement of efficiency in the decision-
making process during the planning phase due to better spatial imagination. The
pipeline was successfully tested with CAD data from existing Intensive Care Units.
The results indicate that the pipeline can be a valuable tool in the field of spatial
planning in healthcare, due to simple usage and fast conversion of CAD data. The
next step will be the development of a plugin for CAD tools to allow for interactions
with the CAD models in Virtual Reality, which is not yet possible without manual
intervention
The healthcare sector is growing in importance as people continue to age and pandemics complicate the boundary conditions of such systems. The number of innovative approaches to solve singular tasks and problems in this area is only slowly increasing. This is particularly evident when looking at medical technology planning, medical training and process simulation. In this paper a concept for versatile digital improvements to these problems by using state of the art development methods of Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) are presented. The programming and design of the software is done with the help of Unity Engine, which provides an open interface for docking with the developed framework for future work. The solutions were tested under domain specific environments and have shown good results and positive feedback.
