Title
MOVIDA.eros: an eHealth Solution for Cardiac Rehabilitation Programs
Abstract
MOVIDA.eros platform is a rehabilitation program emerging from a partnership between academia and a central hospital in Portugal. The platform combines a mobile application and a web backoffice platform to presceibe and monitoring physical activity. The system also allows changes to be made to the prescription, depending on physical performance and physiological response. These changes are automatically updated in the mobile app.The results regarding the adhesion and usability of the platform are encouraging. So far, the integration of the MOVIDA.eros platform into a classic cardiac rehabilitation program has allowed an increase in the number of patients under supervision, and has contributed to increasing the feeling of security during physical training. This program, in 1.5 years, has allowed the number of patients being monitored and treated to currently be 150, in a continuous monitoring regime (the classic program was designed for 5 patients every 3 months).In the near future, the platform will be able to be easily integrated into Cardiac Rehabilitation Programs in other hospital centers and contribute to the increase in the number of patients in rehabilitation, which is a central strategy in the management of heart diseases, with special emphasis on myocardial infarction.
