Maximize Your Heart Health with Vitalera's Cardiac Rehab Program

Cardiac Rehabilitation Program at Hospital Clínic of Barcelona

The Cardiac Rehabilitation Program (CRP) at Hospital Clínic of Barcelona is an innovative, multidisciplinary initiative designed to optimize cardiovascular health for patients who have experienced an ischemic event. This comprehensive program addresses not only the physical aspects but also the nutritional and emotional ones, providing a holistic approach to recovery and secondary prevention of cardiovascular diseases.

Remote Patient Monitoring and Cardiac Rehabilitation:

One of the standout features of the CRP is the use of telemonitoring and remote patient monitoring. These tools allow continuous and precise control of patients' health status from the comfort of their homes. Telemonitoring includes the use of devices such as smart wristbands that collect vital data in real-time, facilitating constant tracking of patients' physical condition.

Why is the  Cardiac Telerehabilitation Platform?

In collaboration with Vitalera and Ferrer, Hospital Clínic of Barcelona has developed an advanced web platform for cardiac telerehabilitation. This platform is specifically designed for patients who have experienced an ischemic event, offering a holistic rehabilitation program that includes physical, emotional, and lifestyle interventions.

CARDIO4HEALTH Scheme

The CARDIO4HEALTH program lasts 8 weeks and is structured as follows:

- Online Physical Training: 24 sessions distributed in 3 weekly sessions, guided by a specialized physiotherapist. During these sessions, patients use a smart wristband that continuously collects data, allowing detailed monitoring of their progress.

- Adherence to a Healthy Lifestyle: A weekly group session led by a nurse, where crucial topics such as smoking cessation, the Mediterranean diet, therapeutic adherence, and psychological support are addressed. These sessions aim to comprehensively improve patients' quality of life and promote a heart-healthy lifestyle.

- Remote follow-up Visits: Periodic evaluations to monitor the patient's progress and adherence to the program, ensuring optimal and continuous recovery.

Program Results and Effectiveness

The primary goal of the program is to facilitate a smoother recovery, increase patients' confidence in their daily activities, and provide precise tracking of their rehabilitation process. Vitalera's platform has been perfectly adapted to the needs of this telerehabilitation program to restore the best possible quality of life for patients.

Preliminary results of the CARDIO4HEALTH program are promising, indicating that it is safe and effective in improving functional capacity and muscle strength, as well as facilitating a transition to a healthier lifestyle for the heart. Over 90% of patients have successfully followed the program, and an 80% improvement in these patients' quality of life has been observed.

Impact on Medical Professionals and Patients

The success of the program is reflected not only in the patients but also in the medical professionals involved. Telemonitoring and remote patient monitoring allow doctors and physiotherapists to obtain precise, real-time data, improving their ability to respond to any eventuality and adjust treatment as necessary. This results in more personalized and effective care.

The adoption of advanced technologies such as APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) has also been crucial. APIs allow smooth integration between different systems and devices, ensuring that all relevant data is collected and analyzed efficiently. This technological integration enhances collaboration among various health professionals and ensures that patients receive the most comprehensive and coordinated care possible.

The Success of our Cardiac Rehabilitation Program

The success of the CARDIO4HEALTH program at Hospital Clínic of Barcelona is a testament to the potential of telemonitoring and remote patient monitoring in cardiac rehabilitation. As we move forward, the integration of technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning promises even more improvements in the personalization and effectiveness of treatments.

The program has not only proven effective in improving patients' physical health but has also significantly impacted their emotional well-being and quality of life. The holistic approach of the CRP, combined with the advanced technology provided by Vitalera, sets a new standard in cardiac rehabilitation.

In conclusion, the Cardiac Rehabilitation Program at Hospital Clínic of Barcelona, with its innovative telerehabilitation platform and the use of telemonitoring and remote patient monitoring, is paving the way for the future of cardiovascular care. With a focus on comprehensive health improvement and the adoption of advanced technologies, this program is a model for healthcare institutions worldwide.
