Cardiovascular diseases - the most common cause of death in the world

Our hearts beat around 100,000 times a day and pump up to 7,500 litres of blood each day. Heart disease, or more precisely cardiovascular disease, is the most common cause of death worldwide. They take the lives of almost 18 million people every year. Increasingly, young people are suffering from them.

Poor diet, physical inactivity, smoking and alcohol overuse have the greatest impact on the development of these diseases. Those who are affected or at higher risk of developing the disease need early diagnosis and in-depth knowledge of how to reduce their risk and manage their condition.

This responds to the current health situation of the population, which makes both clinical and economic reasons:

  • an increase in the incidence of atrial fibrillation has been observed due to the phenomenon of an ageing population,
  • undiagnosed atrial fibrillation is detected in approximately 10% of all ischaemic strokes,
  • there is a high incidence of asymptomatic atrial fibrillation,
  • there is an opportunity to prevent AF-related strokes through adequate treatment.

Telemonitoring with Comarch HomeHealth 2.0

  • Ordering a telemonitoring service

    The doctor orders remote monitoring of the patient outside the medical facility and adjusts its course. Sets a schedule of tasks, drug doses, personalizes the ranges of measurement standards, orders medical surveys and selects appropriate educational materials.

  • Patient at home

    The patient performs tasks ordered by the doctor, which the application reminds him of every day. The results from the measuring devices are automatically sent to the application. All data collected from the patient are sent in real time to the Comarch e-Care 2.0 telemedicine platform, where they are automatically analyzed and monitored by the medical care team.

  • Report with recommendations

    After the monitoring period, the doctor can generate a report from the service along with recommendations and make it available to the patient. The patient also has access to all of his historical results in the Comarch HomeHealth 2.0 application.
