Downloads : Potential obstacles to acceptance or true barriers in remote device and disease management

Author J. Brachmann, Coburg (DE)
Title Potential obstacles to acceptance or true barriers in remote device and disease management
Shownotes Remote Patient Management technologies for implanted cardiac patients are currently available in the European market but still not widely implemented.

The benefits for patients and clinicians seem easy to show - from cost containment in managing chronic diseases to clinical benefits in accessing valuable diagnostic information more promptly. However, the healthcare systems in Europe are still facing barriers for adoption & limited availability of funds.

Given the missing proof of evidence, key questions have to be answered before the technology can be implemented consistently and Prof. Brachmann addresses the different issues in a systematic fashion, bringing in results from his experience in Coburg (DE) and sharing insights on how to make remote device and disease management accepted and adopted in the current European context.
