About the project
Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) remains the leading cause of global mortality, yet many patients face barriers in accessing traditional, centre-based cardiac rehabilitation (CR). Building on a previously trialled and co-developed digital health platform, ECME-CR, this solution integrates wearable technologies and validated exercise delivery protocols to support remote cardiac rehabilitation.
The ECME-CR system includes a web-based app, a data aggregation system (CABIE+/SIMS), and two connected wearable devices (Withings ScanWatch and BPM Connect).The platform's potential lies in its ability to engage individuals less likely to attend in-person programmes.
The key objectives of Cardiac Rehab are:
1. Delivering a refined ECME-CR platform with enhanced features.
2. Providing seamless remote monitoring by integrating wearables with real-time data aggregation and feedback.
3. Enabling proven remote cardiac rehabilitation.
