“I’ve looked at life from both sides now…”*
I was amazed to find out that 26% of heart patients return to hospital within a month of being discharged. This means that current therapies work well on 74% of people, but the other 26% need more aggressive monitoring and therapy. The way the current healthcare system identifies these patients is to re-admit them to hospital and assess them more aggressively. The cost of the average hospital stay in the USA, according to the University of Washington, has doubled in the last decade to $33,079 in 2010. That is an expensive way to diagnose patients who need extra care.
I recently spoke to the Chief Cardiologist at one large American hospital to confirm this information and he told me they discharge 1,200 cardiac patients a month and see 300 of them come back the next month. I pointed out that just eliminating three returns (1%) would pay for the Angelo™ system in the first month. He said, “let’s prove right heart analysis will reduce re-admissions”. We have started the process to do the clinical study.
But how does this work? For decades, some visionary cardiologists have been advocating the application of a functional right heart analysis, in the setting of left heart disease as THE way to properly assess the patient – to see just how damaged the left heart is by looking at the related issues in the right heart. This idea is starting to take hold, as now there are entire conferences dedicated to the right heart.
In June we will be exhibiting at one of these conferences in Austria , entitled, "Everything about the Right Heart". Ventripoint will present two live cases in the workshop to show cardiologists how easy it is to get the correct information using the Angelo™ system.
With the help of Ventripoint’s Angelo™ system it is possible to see the whole picture to attain whole-hearted health. So we can look at both the right and the left sides now!
*Thanks to Joni Mitchell: Both Sides Now (1969), Cardiologists will soon be singing -“I’ve looked at life from both sides now.”
