For heart failure

“Far fewer deaths” thanks to telemedicine

According to statistics, more than 300,000 Austrians suffer from heart failure. This is associated with frequent hospital stays and a high mortality risk. This does not have to be the case, say those responsible for the Tyrolean "HerzMobil" project. And they present astonishing figures.  

It began as a pilot project in Tyrol in 2012. It is a simple care program for people with heart failure. According to statistics, there are more than 300,000 of these in Austria, and around 30,000 in Tyrol alone.
