Nearly half of counties in the United States don't have a single cardiologist, according to a new study in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology. We believe digital health tools are the most effective and scalable way to bridge the urban-rural divide and help people everywhere take care of their hearts. And we're working every day to do just that. Last year, we published peer-reviewed research that found equitable outcomes for Hello Heart users regardless of their location or distance to a healthcare facility. Check out the findings here: https://lnkd.in/gmYGfRZX And read more about the JACC study here in NBC News: https://lnkd.in/eVweqJiF #RuralHealth #DigitalHealth #HeartHealth

The question of why women don't talk to their doctors about certain health issues was a conversation topic among our Pathways in Health Technology students. It was also discussed in this recent article from Medtronic: "Women’s reluctance to seek cardiovascular care stemmed from various factors, including fear or anxiety about medical visits and concerns about symptom dismissal by healthcare providers. Such barriers hindered timely access to diagnosis and treatment. More than 2 in 5 women cited fear and anxiety as a factor, and 15% felt doctors would dismiss their symptoms."

Many of the topics at the #AMWA2024 annual meetings were in alignment with the recently announced Executive Order on Advancing Women's Health Research and Innovation. This Executive Order seeks to: 1) Prioritize and Increase Investments in Women’s Health Research The NIH has pledged $200 million to launch an NIH-wide effort to close gaps in women’s health research across the lifespan, such as on the impact of perimenopause and menopause on heart health, brain health, and bone health. In response to many investigators not knowing about federal funding opportunities, the NIH will issue a new Notice of Special Interest (NOSI) to identify open funding opportunities related to women’s health research across a wide range of health conditions. 2) Foster Innovation and Discovery in Women’s Health The Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) is launching a Sprint for Women’s Health that will commit $100 million in funding to transformative research and development (R&D) in women’s health. In addition, the NIH also plans a 50% increase in its investment in private-sector innovators and small businesses engaged in R&D on women’s health. Another very important development is that the NIH will focus on biomarker research to help improve early detection and treatment of conditions that uniquely affect women, such as endometriosis. 3) Expand and Leverage Data Collection and Analysis Related to Women’s Health The NIH is launching an effort that will promote interoperability and improve data accuracy by identifying and developing new common data elements. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention plans to improve its analysis and reporting of women’s health information by expanding the collection of key quality measures across a woman’s lifespan. All of these areas of focus will require input and engagement with multiple stakeholders to ensure that JEDI principles are are integrated into the activities and programs developed through this Executive Order. AMWA, its committee leads and members will be engaging on various levels with the NIH, ORWH and the CDC.

R2G runs the "Global Digital Health Pricing and Business Model Benchmark" initiative. The preliminary results cover the therapy areas of diabetes, neurology, mental health, and cardiology. Here are some key insights: Prices for digital health solutions in neurology are the highest, averaging $449 per quarter. Pricing variations by country show that Germany has the highest prices at $348, compared to the USA ($250) and the UK ($140). Use the following link if you like to participate in this ongoing benchmarking project and get the results in the future: https://lnkd.in/eSVdqNa6 Many thanks to #R2G and Stela Nikolova!

How might digital technology impact quality of life for people with chronic conditions? My colleague, Adriano Garcez BSc, MSc, MBA and his cohort of authors has recently published "Impact of Digital Health Technology on Quality of Life in Patients With Heart Failure" in the Journal of American College of Cardiology (JACC): HEART FAILURE journal, Volume 12, Issue 2, 2024. The study aimed to evaluate the effect of three digital technologies (Bodyport, Conversa, and Noom) on the quality of life (QoL) in patients with heart failure. Through a randomized controlled trial, a total of 182 patients were assigned to either usual care or one of the digital interventions. The primary outcome measure was the 90-day change in QoL, as assessed by the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) Overall Summary Score (OSS). Check it out here: https://lnkd.in/eY69DQ6Q

🌐 Breaking News: Digital Health Improves Blood Pressure in Vulnerable Populations ⭐️These news gets me really optimistic! ⭐️ A recent study published in JAMA Network Open reveal the positive impact of digital health interventions on blood pressure (BP) among hypertensive individuals facing health disparities. 🩺💻. In the article "Digital Health Strategies Reduce High BP Among Underserved Groups" TechTarget explore some interesting statistics on the problem as well as the potential benefits of using digital health to mitigate the risk of hypertensive individuals not receiving the necessary treatment due to health disparities. 📊 Key Highlights: 🩹 Scope of the Issue: Half of US adults have hypertension, with only 27 million having it under control. Disparities persist across racial and socioeconomic lines. 📚 Research Initiative: A collaborative effort by Yale New Haven Health, Yale University, New York Medical College, Massachusetts General Hospital, and the Va Connecticut Healthcare System delves into the potential of digital health in reducing BP levels in vulnerable populations. 🌐 Comprehensive Study: The researchers examined 28 trials, involving 8,257 participants, using various digital health interventions, such as reminders, education, behavioral support, wearable sensors, and tailored messaging. 📈 Positive Outcomes: The mean systolic BP decreased significantly in the intervention groups, highlighting the efficacy of digital health in addressing health disparities. 💪 🚀 Future Implications: The study suggests that personalized digital health approaches may help eliminate health inequities in hypertension management, paving the way for more inclusive healthcare solutions. However, it's essential to note a recent study's caution on costs, revealing a relative increase in spending for high-RPM practices despite positive patient outcomes. 💰🤔 #digitalhealth #healthtech #HypertensionManagement #inclusivehealthcare
