Expertise in Telemedicine

Telemedicine offers new solutions and perspectives of patient care, through the execution and reporting of diagnostic tests even at a distance: space and time are no longer a hindrance. Healthcare is becoming more efficient, advanced, dynamic and close to people’s needs. Telemedicine does not replace traditional medicine, but supports and integrates it, thanks to more efficient channels of communication and innovative technologies.

Every day, we share expertise and competence with our clients, in different areas of telemedicine and in various steps of the project.

Telemedicine applications

Overall, approximately 2/3 of public and private hospitals that are authorized to provide surgical services, medical imaging, and invasive diagnostics (procedures for which diagnostic ECGs are preparatory), do not have a clinical cardiology department/service. The absence of clinical cardiology also prevents them from providing very common services such as HolterECG and ABPM.

Cardioline’s technological solutions for telecardiology and telemedicine support dozens of public and private hospitals in the area of cardiological diagnostics on a daily basis. There are two most common solutions:

  • Centralised reporting systems associated with Cardioline’s recording systems, which operate on a hub-spoke model.
  • “Cardioline Ref Site Network” reporting services associated with Cardioline’s recording systems, which operate on a global service model, providing both technology and cardiological consultancy.

Telecardiology and telemedicine services have become increasingly important. For example, in Italy the demand exceeds 300,000 units/year, with numbers growing by 15-20% on an annual basis. Italy is certainly one of the most advanced countries in this sector in Europe and in the world, with a presence and offer that go beyond national borders.

Cardioline’s technological solutions for telecardiology and telemedicine support the main and most important reporting centers in Italy on a daily basis. Moreover, Cardioline’s solutions have long been implemented by telemedicine providers in Brazil and the United Kingdom. The most common and widespread solution in this area is:

  • Centralised reporting systems associated with Cardioline’s recording systems, which operate on a hub-spoke model.

The diagnostic ECG is one of the most common tests in medical practice. Level 2 cardiological diagnostics (Holter ECG and ABPM) is also a common practice, with a demand that is very often significantly higher than the supply.

Cardioline’s technological solutions for telecardiology and telemedicine support numerous diagnostic centers and clinics on a daily basis. There are two most common approaches, sometimes practiced in a “hybrid” manner (i.e. complementary, with a view to ensuring 24/7 coverage):

  • Centralized reporting systems associated with Cardioline recording systems. The specialist doctor in the facility can access the cloud remotely and report the ECG in real time.
  • Cardioline Ref Site Network” reporting services associated with Cardioline’s recording systems, which operate on a “global service” model, providing both technology and cardiological consultancy.

Enhanced-service pharmacies have taken on a central, fundamental role in the national healthcare system, with several hundred thousand services provided every year.

The most requested tests are diagnostic ECGs, Holter ECGs, Holter ABPMs and a wide variety of self-analyses of capillary blood (glycemia, lipids, glycated hemogloblin, complete blood count, etc.)

Cardioline’s technological solutions support over a thousand enhanced-service pharmacies on a daily basis, directly or indirectly. There are two most common solutions in this area:

  • Reporting services provided by well-known Reporting Centres, with an integrated technology and reporting offer.
  • Cardioline Ref Site Network” reporting services associated with Cardioline’s recording systems, which operate on a “global service” model, providing both technology and cardiological consultancy.

Home care and home post-surgical follow-up has gained a central role in medical practice in recent years, and is one of the central parameters in continuity of care.

Cardioline’s technological solutions support numerous entities working in this area on a daily basis. There are two most common approaches, sometimes working in a hybrid manner (i.e. complementary, with a view to ensuring 24/7 coverage):

  • Centralized reporting systems associated with Cardioline recording systems. The specialist doctor in the facility can access the cloud remotely and report the ECG in real time.
  • Cardioline Ref Site Network” reporting services associated with Cardioline’s recording systems, which operate on a “global service” model, providing both technology and cardiological consultancy.

ECG recording and remote reporting in emergency conditions – emergency wards, on board or by first-aid vehicles – has gained a central role in recent years in the treatment of acute cardiac pathologies, acute myocardial infarction in particular.

Cardioline, with its technological solutions, supports hundreds of first-aid vehicles in Italy on a daily basis. There is one most common approach in this case:

  • Local, centralised reporting systems associated with Cardioline recording systems. These systems operate on a hub-spoke model: the traces are recorded on first-aid vehicles and sent to the local reporting centre, reported in real time and stored in accordance with law requirements.

At the level of non-competitive and competitive sports, an ECG check-up is often required. Moreover, preventive and periodic heart check-ups are highly recommended for wellness centres customers.

Cardioline’s technological solutions support many gyms and wellness centres on a daily basis, directly or indirectly. The main approaches in this area are:

  • Reporting services provided by well-known Reporting Centres, with an integrated technology and reporting offer.
  • Centralized reporting systems associated with Cardioline recording systems. The specialist doctor in the facility can access the cloud remotely and report the ECG in real time.

Telemedicine Services and Solutions

Thanks to 60 years of experience in cardiological diagnostics, and over 10 years in telemedicine, Cardioline offers highly diversified solutions, both Drop and Tailor-made.

Regarding Drop solutions, first of all it is important to distinguish between recording solutions and reporting solutions. Tailor-made solutions, on the other hand, represent real projects, and, therefore, a tailor-made suit designed and created explicitly for a specific customer: more information on this topic is available in the “project solutions” area.

Recording Solutions

Cardioline, leader in the Telemedicine segment, offers some of the most advanced and high-performance recording solutions on the market.

The continuous search for innovative recording solutions has led to the introduction of CardioPack, CardioConsolle and CardioPack Monitor, three end-to-end turnkey solutions, which support the recording of resting ECG, dynamic Holter ECG and ABPM, as well as different physiological parameters, including SpO2, heart rate, NIBP and temperature.

Reporting Solutions

Cardioline’s telemedicine reporting solutions allow healthcare professionals to read and evaluate remotely-recorded parameters.

Reporting systems provide a powerful environment for viewing and valorising data, both in a purely cardiological context and in the context of general practice and/or post-surgical monitoring.

Reporting services represent the end-to-end solution for cardiological diagnostics. They are often used in a complementary manner to reporting systems, with a view to ensuring continuity of operations and care.
