is a proven effective tool for providing quality care to patients
with cardiac diseases. Patients with Heart Failure (HF), hypertension
and those preparing for heart surgery often experience fatigue
and have very little energy for the activities of daily living.
In the comfort of their own homes, patients have the security
of knowing that a case manager is monitoring their vital signs
and other health related concerns. Early detection of changes
in health status enables the healthcare professional to provide
proactive clinical interventions preventing further decline,
ER visits and hospitalizations.
IDPM is designed to empower
patients. Through dynamic questioning and educational messages
the patient learns to understand and manage their chronic
disease. While New IT Healthcare offers a set of clinical
protocols, the IDPM Clinical Editor provides the flexibility
for our customers to develop their own protocols. The following
provides a sample of activities available for cardiac patients.
