The Challenge
Managing the at-home care of infants with severe congenital heart defects is challenging, often resulting in emergency room visits or hospitalizations.
Our solution
KidsHeart is a mobile application that connects families with real-time clinical support. It allows caregivers to track vital patient health data such as oxygen saturation, heart rate, and weight from home during the vulnerable interstage period between their first and second heart surgeries.
how it works
KidsHeart bridges the gap by providing a direct line of communication between families and healthcare providers, ensuring that potential complications are identified and addressed sooner. By improving remote monitoring for high-risk infants, KidsHeart has transformed pediatric care.
Impact
- 55% fewer emergency room visits
- More timely medical decisions
- Greater peace of mind
