By examining advances in artificial intelligence, immersive technologies, genomics, and digital health infrastructure, the paper envisions a healthcare system poised for transformative change. The anticipated role of AI as a digital assistant in diagnostics, resource management, and personalized medicine is highlighted, alongside the implications for clinical workflows. Immersive technologies, such as VR and AR, promise enhancements in medical education, patient care, and therapeutic interventions. Advances in genomics and gene editing technologies such as CRISPR further open possibilities for personalized treatment regimens and potential cures for genetic diseases. However, these innovations introduce new ethical challenges around privacy, data security, and clinical accountability. The article also addresses the healthcare implications of climate change, aging populations, and global conflicts, urging preparedness and resilience within healthcare systems. Taken together, it emphasizes the need for a balanced approach to innovation, integrating ethical considerations to foster a future where medicine remains empathetic and human-centered, even as it becomes more data-driven and technologically complex.</p>","PeriodicalId":93975,"journal":{"name":"Deutsche medizinische Wochenschrift (1946)","volume":"149 24-25","pages":"1552-1559"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142782221","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study we report evolving trends of antibiotic use in German hospitals during the last decade.Using drug dispensing data from acute care hospital pharmacies, we calculated yearly antibiotic use density values for the period from 2012/13 through to 2021/22. Use density was expressed as daily doses per 100 patient days, using both hospital adapted doses of antibiotics (\"<i>recommended daily dose</i>\", RDD) as well as WHO-\"<i>defined daily doses</i>\" (DDD). The 2021/22 data were extrapolated to estimate the hospital consumption in DDD per 1000 population and day.The overall antibiotic use density remained stable during the observation period. It was 41.9 RDD/100 patient days (median, n=169 hospitals, interquartile range 35-48 RDD/100) in the year 2012/13 and 42.1 RDD/100 (median, n=329, interquartile range 35-48 RDD/100) in the year 2021/22, respectively. The estimated national use per population in 2021/22 was 1.85 DDD per 1000 inhabitants and day. The antibiotic use levels in university hospitals (54.0 RDD/100) were higher than in non-university hospitals that showed a similar use density across different hospital size categories (medians between 39.8 and 44.0 RDD/100). Overall, penicillin use increased over time (change in proportion +63%), while fluoroquinolones (- 54%) and first and second generation cephalosporins (- 41%) were prescribed less frequently. Antibiotic use density in intensive care units was approximately twice as high as in normal wards. High levels of antibiotic use were also observed in haematology-oncology divisions at teaching hospitals (median 96.8 RDD/100), in urology (medians between 65.1 and 70.5 RDD/100) and oto-rhino-laryngology (medians between 49.1 and 60.9 RDD/100) and urology divisions.During the last decade, there was no increasing use of antibiotics in German acute care hospitals.

In cohorts of kidney transplant recipients, a monogenic cause is found in up to 30% of cases. Identifying the genetic cause of kidney disease has become much easier thanks to technological advances in DNA sequencing. The focus has now shifted to understanding the significance of the findings and identifying diagnostic gaps. It is still not possible to clarify all CKD cases of unclear aetiology. Besides very effective generic treatments for monogenic kidney disease (e.g., ACE-inhibitor use in Alport Syndrome), increasing knowledge of the pathophysiology of genetic kidney diseases has led to a growing number of targeted therapies. These include the treatment of ADPKD with Tolvaptan, which has now been in use for 10 years. Recently, exciting, and completely new approaches have been added, such as the first siRNA therapies in nephrology for primary hyperoxaluria type 1, the targeted treatment of hyperphagia in Bardet-Biedl syndrome, the therapy of APOL1-associated kidney disease or the use of the HIF-2 antagonist Belzutifan for renal cell carcinoma associated with Von-Hippel-Lindau syndrome. The new possibilities in the treatment of patients with genetic kidney diseases have also clearly revealed deficits in current patient care. Centers of excellence with extensive experience in this area therefore play an important role in improving care. This also applies to the further training of colleagues in the field. In Germany, the National Action Alliance for People with Rare Diseases (NAMSE) and the nationwide establishment of - to date - 36 centers for rare diseases play an important role in this regard.</p>","PeriodicalId":93975,"journal":{"name":"Deutsche medizinische Wochenschrift (1946)","volume":"149 22","pages":"1361-1366"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142515192","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
