AI-Supported Decision-Making in Medical Device Procurement: From Ad Hoc Criteria to Meta-Criteria and Value Configurations
Mattia Barsanti, Salvatore Tallarico, Luisa Pellegrini, Riccardo Dulmin, Simone Lazzini, Marco Praticò
Medical device (MD) procurement is a strategic area of non-clinical decision-making in healthcare, as purchasing choices affect not only cost containment but also quality of care, patient safety, and long-term health system sustainability. In competitive tenders, however, evaluation criteria are often highly heterogeneous and device specific. This limits the possibility of systematically comparing procurement decisions [...]

Improving Clinical Evidence for Medical Devices: A Lifecycle Approach
Marco Praticò, Salvatore Tallarico, Luisa Pellegrini, Simone Lazzini
Background: The European Medical Devices Regulation (MDR) 2017/745 seeks to minimize clinical uncertainty – especially regarding the generation, dissemination, and quality of clinical evidence – across all phases of the medical device lifecycle: pre-market, market approval, post-market, and disinvestment. Although the MDR promotes using gold-standard methodologies, such as Randomized Controlled Trials to address clinical uncertainty, [...]

Digital Technologies for Supporting Firms' Absorptive Capacity: A Systematic Review
Salvatore Tallarico, Valentina Lazzarotti, Simone Lazzini, Luisa Pellegrini
A firm can improve its innovation processes by accessing useful external knowledge, profiting from the Open Innovation outside-in process. However, to benefit from the flow of knowledge from the firm’s outside boundary, the firm’s Absorptive Capacity – the ability to correctly acquire, assimilate, transform, and exploit external knowledge according to the innovation needs – plays [...]

Blockchain Technology in Healthcare: Readiness of Different Types of Stakeholders
Benedetta Nicolai, Salvatore Tallarico, Luisa Pellegrini, Luca Gastaldi, Giacomo Vella, Simone Lazzini
With the advent of the Digital Transformation, Healthcare Systems have switched from paper to electronic health records (EMR). However, there are few critical issues related to data governance (e.g., transparency of data, traceability, immutability, privacy and security) that need to be addressed in the upcoming years. Blockchain (BT) is a decentralized digital ledger and an [...]
