International conference
Innovation in heart failure
Ladies and Gentlemen!

We would like to invite you to participate in the Innovation in heart failure in telecare and therapy conference. This year's edition of this international project will once again be devoted to an extremely important issue, i.e., the care of patients with heart failure. The primary purpose of chronic outpatient care is to optimise treatment and prevent unscheduled hospital admissions in order to improve the patients’ prognoses and reduce systemic financial expenditures. 

During our conference “A new model of ambulatory care with the use of modern methods of noninvasive clinical assessment and telemedicine in HF patients – the AMULET project” will be presented. The project was designed in order to achieve the goals specified above. This concept was developed by experts from the Polish scientific consortium and implemented as part of a project funded by the National Centre for Research and Development (NCBiR).

The conference will take place online from 7 through 10 September 2021 at amulet.care website

Prof. Grzegorz Gielerak
Chair of the AMULET Steering Committee

Principles, goals and results of the AMULET project

Well-organised outpatient care is vital for reducing the hospitalisation rate and improving the prognosis of patients with heart failure. That is why we have created an outpatient medical care model that utilises modern methods for non-invasive clinical assessment and telemedicine.
The AMULET project is a telecare system based on ambulatory care points (ACPs) where the primary role is played by qualified nursing staff. The goal is to limit the involvement of cardiologists in outpatient care to absolutely necessary procedures. We have also developed a new mobile device that allows patients to monitor their vital signs at home.
The solutions developed in the AMULET project give an opportunity to improve the prognosis of patients with heart failure by increasing the availability of specialist care, effective detection of symptoms indicating the risk of exacerbation of this disease, adapting treatment to the individual needs of the patient, and as a result reducing the number of emergency hospitalizations. 

The event is organized in cooperation with the project
