ConnectedHeart

The ConnectedHeart App is a mobile application intended to assist cardiac patients to improve their cardiovascular health through tailored cardiac rehabilitation programs. After a rehabilitation program is prescribed by a medical doctor, the App guides the patient through the types and frequency of exercises they should perform, capturing physical activity and physiological data to remotely verify patient adherence to the program, and to quantify the evolution of the relevant cardiac parameters. Physical activity information (step count, distance, speed) is collected through the mobile phone’s on-device sensors, while cardiac physiological data is collected via an external device (such as a wearable measuring heart rate), typically connected via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to the patient’s mobile phone. DISCLAIMER: This app is not certified as a medical device and can only be used when recommended by a medical doctor.
