Filter by:Against the background of the European Innovation Partnership on Active & Healthy Ageing, SmartCare aims to define a common set of standard functional specifications for an open ICT platform enabling the delivery of integrated care to older European citizens. In the context of SmartCare, a total of 23 regions and their key stakeholders will define a comprehensive set of integration building blocks around the challenges of data-sharing, coordination and communication. Nine regions will then deploy integrated health & social services to combat a range of threats to independent living commonly faced by older people, while the others will prepare for early adoption, possibly in the framework of new ICT PSP projects. In a rigorous evaluation approach, the deployment sites will produce and document much needed evidence on the impact of integrated care, developing a common framework suitable for other regions in Europe. The organisational and legal ramifications of integrated care will be analysed to support long term sustainability and upscaling of the services. SmartCare services will provide full support to cooperative delivery of care, integrated with self-care and across organisational silos, including essential coordination tools such as shared data access, care pathway design and execution, as well as real time communication support to care teams and multi-organisation access to home platforms. In addition, they will empower all older people according to their mental faculties to take part in effective management of their health, wellness, and chronic conditions, and maintain their independence despite increasing frailty. The SmartCare services build on advanced ICT already deployed in the pioneer regions, including high penetrations of telecare and telemonitoring home platforms. In SmartCare, these platforms are to be opened to cross-sectorial care teams, improving the ability of older people to better manage their chronic conditions at home and deal with their increasing frailty. System integration will be based, whenever possible, on open standards' multivendor interoperability will be strongly encouraged.
This is a 2x2 study examining the impacts of a novel exercise regimen and daily text message reminders in patients at high risk for cardiovascular disease. Patients participating in cardiac rehabilitation will be randomized to either moderate intensity continuous training (MICT) or a novel exercise regimen consisting of three periods of high intensity exercise, called BURST exercise. Additionally, half of the patients in each exercise group will be randomized to receive daily text message reminders to improve adherence to the prescribed exercise regimen.
This is a multicenter, prospective, single-arm Continued Access study of the Optimizer Smart System with CCM therapy.
The purpose of this study was to compare the bioavailability and tolerability of BIA 5-453 under fasted and fed conditions.
Some patients who have multiple long-term health conditions have significant challenges accessing needed services despite available primary care and social services resources. Patient navigation programs may help those with complex health conditions improve their care and outcomes and if delivered by community health navigators (CHNs) who have close community ties, these programs have the potential to reduce barriers to care and increase access to coordinated, person-centred care. The ENCOMPASS program aims to improve the care and health outcomes for high-risk patients by linking patients with chronic disease with a CHN to help them navigate the health system, facilitate communication between patients and providers, improve patients' understanding of their conditions and treatment plans, and support patients in their self-management. In Canada, patient navigation programs have not been well studied or broadly implemented in patients with chronic disease, making a comprehensive evaluation of ENCOMPASS important. This program has great potential to improve care for patients with chronic diseases in primary care.
The purpose of this study is to Evaluate the Safety of DILATREND SR Cap. in Korean Patients with Essential hypertension, Chronic stable angina and Congestive heart failure for 52 weeks.
EMERGE is a PI-initiated feasibility study that aims to evaluate the accessibility, usability, effectiveness and relevance of an integrated psycho-behavioral intervention on heart failure patients in order to increase support, outreach and general well-being of these patients following hospitalization due to heart failure exacerbation.
The purpose of this study is to: To determine the rate and routes of excretion of BIA 5-453 and the mass balance in urine and faeces
The purpose of this Post Market Study (PMS) is to evaluate the use of the CardioMEMS HF System in patients with Class III Heart Failure in a commercial setting.
Perform a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2a feasibility study to determine whether treatment of HFpEF patients with intracoronary allogeneic CDCs affects clinical functional status (QOL scores), exercise tolerance (6MHW), exercise hemodynamics (supine exercise ergometry during right heart catheterization), myocardial interstitial fibrosis (MRI with native T1 mapping and calculation of extracellular volume [ECV] after gadolinium administration), macroscopic fibrosis by delayed gadolinium enhancement (DGE), and diastolic function (catheterization, echocardiography, BNP). Treatment of patients with symptomatic hypertensive heart disease-induced HFpEF with allogeneic CDCs will be safe and will improve clinical functional status, exercise tolerance/hemodynamics, myocardial interstitial structure, and diastolic function; the mechanisms underlying these improvements will be reflected in changes in plasma biomarkers that indicate a reduction in pro-inflammatory and pro-fibrotic signaling.
