Abstract
BACKGROUND: Regardless of ownership structure, information systems are crucial for the digital transformation and process optimization of healthcare organizations.
AIM: This study aimed to digitally transform and improve the implementation of biomedical, scientific, and applied developments and information systems into patient-oriented products and services, integrating them with educational programs and medical technologies.
METHODS: How biomedical technologies are transferred to a similar segment of the online market was analyzed. Furthermore, experimental studies with feedback from test groups were conducted. Various elements of the platform were examined, and data were collected to improve and systematize this online service. The strengths and weaknesses of the websites of similar medical clinics were evaluated. Four common problems were identified: difficult navigation, outdated visual design, slow page loading speeds, and lacking collaboration and commercialization opportunities.
RESULTS: A prototype of Kazan Federal University’s digital ecosystem (online platform) of biomedical technologies was developed. It includes a user-friendly, three-click process from start of search for services and products to submitting a request for consultation and/or purchase. In 2024, the prototype was posted for public access on the official Kazan Federal University website.
CONCLUSION: This international, competitive electronic platform of the biomedical translational ecosystem provides conditions for product and service localization in biomedical and healthcare sectors.
