Digitalization in clinical settings using graph databases

In clinical settings, different data is stored in different systems. These data are very heterogeneous, but still highly interconnected. Graph databases are a good fit for this kind of data: they contain heterogeneous "data nodes" which can be connected to each other. The basic question is now if and how clinical data can be used in a graph database, most importantly how clinical staff can profit from this approach. Possible scenarios are a graphical user interface for clinical staff for easier access to required information or an interface for evaluation and analysis to answer more complex questions. (e.g., "Were there similar patients to this patient? How were they treated?")
