Project Description & Objectives

eHealth innovations allow the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and IoT-devices to optimize personalized care and provide self-care assistance during cardiac rehabilitation (CR). TIMELY is the first AI-driven eHealth approach promoting targeted personalized lifestyle interventions. TIMELY includes continuous risk prediction, decision support tools and assists lifestyle changes based on psychosocial assessment and behavioral change models.

Data Collection Process

Patients were equipped with a Garmin Vivosmart 4 and collected data over a period of 6 months. Data was accessed via the Fitrockr API and displayed in a dashboard for clinicians and case manager and in a mobile app for the patients.

Fitrockr Utilization

Fitrockr was used to extract data from the Garmin Vivosmart devices. The data was then automatically sent via the Fitrockr API to the Timely clinician Dashboard and Timely patient mobile app.
