The Box

Nell project What else is at play?

The Box is literally a box containing wearables for patients who have recently had an acute myocardial infarction. The Box contains a digital scale, blood pressure monitor, activity monitor and an ECG device. With these instruments, patients can monitor their own condition at home. Because all measured values are already known to the practitioner, efficient digital consultation is possible via a secure video connection. With the data, the effect of the set therapy can be assessed better and adjusted if necessary. The monitoring and consultations are aimed at preventing ischemia, prevent heart failure and cardiac arrhythmias, improve lifestyle and promote reintegration into the work process.
