VNA Care Collaborates with SHL Telemedicine using SmartHeart™ Technology 12 lead ECG VNA Care to offer home telemonitoring with SmartHeart technology to transform care and improve clinical outcomes Boston, MA – June 21, 2021 – VNA Care and SHL Telemedicine Ltd. announced a collaboration for use of the SHL SmartHeart 12 Lead ECG technology in VNA Care’s home health care services, to assist some individuals to come home from the hospital sooner, avoid stays in health care facilities, or learn to manage a newly diagnosed illness or disease. Through this collaboration, VNA Care will deploy the use of this compact and portable technology in the home setting. SmartHeart is the first device of its kind to allow the transmission of a full hospital-grade 12 Lead ECG using a smartphone or tablet. FDA-cleared for use by patients and providers, the SmartHeart helps clinicians maintain continuity of care outside the hospital or medical office. Its user-friendly electrode belt wraps around the chest and requires far fewer wires than a traditional ECG machine and no gel or sticky tabs, allowing clinicians and patients to perform the ECG wherever they are, transmitting results to the provider within 30 seconds. “We are very pleased to collaborate with VNA Care, a leading organization in the fields of home healthcare, hospice and community care, with long standing history and reputation” said Erez Nachtomy, CEO of SHL Telemedicine. “We believe that the use of our SmartHeart technology within the VNA Care range of healthcare services will have important clinical implications and improve patient care and satisfaction." Adding the capability of remote full 12 Lead ECG monitoring through SmartHeart technology will bolster both the clinical and telemedicine programs VNA Care already offers to patients in their homes – enhancing care coordination and enabling patients to manage their own health with the support of a multi-disciplinary clinical team. “As we continue to provide innovative in-home solutions for our patients, we are pleased to launch our collaboration with SHL Telemedicine,” stated Jane Pike-Benton, COO & Chief Clinical Officer of VNA Care. “The ease of use of the SmartHeart will enable a higher degree of self-care, improved patient outcomes and enhance the patient’s overall experience of care.” About VNA Care VNA Care’s nonprofit visiting nurse associations, VNA Care Network, VNA of Boston, and VNA Hospice & Palliative Care, have served thousands of patients throughout Central and Eastern Massachusetts during our 135 year history.
