Heart failure program
Remote titration and better disease management.
What is the aim of the program?
- Saves time since patients only have to come for regular outpatient clinic check ups in case needed.
- Speeding up of the effect of treatment and setting the right treatment.
- Adjust treatment whenever the condition deteriorates.
How does it work?
The goal of this program is to improve care and speed up treatment. By measuring at home, we receive a large number of blood pressure values by checking on them over a longer period, on different days, as closely as possible to normal living conditions. If the blood pressure readings are not within the set target values, we will call a patient. We will work with them to see whether it is necessary to adjust the treatment with medicines or whether the challenge lies more in adjusting the lifestyle.
