Effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of a personalised digital prevention network for highcardiovascular- risk patients. Hasselt University
Integrative computer modeling of cardiorespiratory fitness for personalised profiling and prevention of early-stage heart failure KU Leuven
The surging burden of heart diseases on our society calls for tools that can adequately detect and control heart diseases before disease symptoms present. Clinical exercise tests could improve the characterisation and management of subclinical stages of cardiac disease. Yet, current practice only considers a limited selection of cardiopulmonary exercise indexes in isolation. To utilise the full value of clinical and exercise testing data, in ...
Personalized Remotely Guided Preventive Exercise Therapy for a Healthy Heart - the PRIORITY project Hasselt University
Personalized Remotely Guided Preventive Exercise Therapy for a Healthy Heart - the PRIORITY project KU Leuven
PRIORITY aims to generate the scientific evidence for the use of
remotely guided exercise therapy as an accessible, clinical and costeffective
treatment to prevent the deleterious effects of sedentary
aging on the heart and forestall progression towards heart failure (HF).
In Belgium, an epidemic of HF exists, with 200 000 HF patients and 40
new cases every day. Mortality approaches 50% within 5 yrs of
diagnosis. ...
Personalized Remotely Guided Preventive Exercise Therapy for a Healthy Heart - the PRIORITY project Ghent University
Innovation potential of PRIORITY project
The capacity to deliver a patient-centric, optimally dosed exercise
program which supports patients in adopting an active lifestyle in their
home-environment, but also allows for real in-person contacts with
their treating physiotherapist is a powerful and compelling approach to
sustainable healthcare. This type of hybrid exercise therapy model
combines the best of ...
Preventing Relapse After Successful ECT for Depression - A randomized controlled trial on lithium as add-on to personalized maintenance ECT. KU Leuven
The current project is designed to study some promising relapse prevention strategies in a well-designed but challenging RCT.
Preventing Relapse After Successful ECT for Depression– A randomized controlled trial on lithium as add-on to personalized maintenance ECT. University of Antwerp
Personalised management with the use of new mobile and integrated care tools targeting three outcome determinants in patients with atrial fibrillation. University of Antwerp
Personalised stimulation strategies for cochlear implants using EEG source analysis KU Leuven
Cochlear implants (CIs) are successful in restoring hearing in people with severe hearing loss and the benefit CI recipients gain from their device are often life-changing. However, in adverse listening environments speech perception with a CI is highly challenging and there is a high variability in performance across CI users. Currently, there is limited knowledge on how the individual’s auditory pathway processes the electrical CI ...
