Every year countless lives are lost due to an undiagnosed, yet treatable heart disease, prompting HD Medical to intervene with a revolutionary remote cardiac-tracking device that's disrupting the health-tech industry.
According to the CEO, Arvind Thiagarajan, 18 million people die worldwide due to various heart-related conditions. His explanation, is that "using a stethoscope, is a dying art" due to the fact that problems don't always arise when one is in the immediate presence of a physician. Furthermore, more thorough technologies, like ECGs are preformed reactively, not proactively.
The solution is a home-monitoring device dubbed the HealthyU, which can track the heartbeat remotely, serving as the "world's first intelligent all-in-one remote patient monitoring device". According to the brand, its both discreet, user-friendly, and highly effective.
