How it works
From hospital to home
with continuous monitoring

TeleHeartGuard connects patients with their medical team through wearable devices and digital tools, supporting continuity of care after hospital discharge.

HOW IT WORKS

1.

Medical assessment

The medical team assesses the patient's condition and determines whether the appropriate clinical criteria are met for safe remote monitoring.

2.

Provision of a wearable device

The patient receives the appropriate wearable device and is instructed on how to use it, in accordance with the guidance provided by the responsible medical team.

3.

Monitoring from home

After hospital discharge, the device supports the collection of the required data and their transmission to the project's digital platform.

4.

Connection with the care team

Healthcare professionals can monitor the patient's progress in accordance with the established clinical protocol and intervene when this is considered necessary.

5.

Evaluation of results

The results of the pilot implementation will be used to assess the effectiveness of the model and explore the possibility of its wider application.

Note for visitors. Participation in the programme, the selection criteria and the method of monitoring are determined exclusively by the responsible medical teams of the participating hospitals.

WHY IT MATTERS

Care does not stop at the hospital door

The period following an Acute Coronary Syndrome is particularly important for the patient's recovery and safety.

Remote monitoring can support a smoother transition from hospital to home, providing patients and their families with a greater sense of security while improving continuity of care.

At the same time, the use of modern digital technologies can contribute to the more effective use of available hospital resources, cooperation between different healthcare units and the development of new models of care.

THREE CORE PRINCIPLES

A shared approach to better cardiac care

The three core principles of TeleHeartGuard reflect how the project brings together patients, technology and the participating medical teams within a shared model of care.

Continuity of care

The patient remains connected with the care team after discharge from the hospital.

Smart telemedicine

Digital technologies are used as tools to support healthcare professionals, not as a substitute for medical judgement.

Cross-border cooperation

Four hospitals from two countries work together towards a common goal: better and more accessible cardiac care.
