Summary

The treatment of acute myocardial infarction (MI) in Poland is at the level of standardized European care. However, the first months after MI are crucial from the perspective of patient's prognosis. It is extremely important to take care of all cardiovascular risk factors. Mobile application (afterAMI) supported by web system is a novel telemedical tool created to support patient and physician during the process of cardiac rehabilitation. The application has educational model with focus on cardiovascular risk factors and lifestyle after MI. Moreover, there is a module to control vital signs like blood pressure, heart rate, weight and many others. Additionally, application will send reminders for better drug adherence. 100 patients will be recruited to take part in the study. All of which will be hospitalized at the 1st Department and Clinic of Cardiology because of the MI. The aim of the project is to study the impact of application-supported model of care with comparison to standard care. At the end of the study cardiovascular risk factors control will be analysed, as well as rehospitalizations, patient's knowledge regarding risk factors, return to work and quality of life. This will be a prospective, open-label, randomized, single-centre study. All 100 patients will be observed 6 months after discharge from the hospital. End points will be assessed during control visit 1- and 6-months after inclusion into the study. This project is an example of a telemedicine solution application into everyday practice, which is consistent with multiple international cardiac societies.

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
BEHAVIORAL	Mobile application (afterAMI)	The rehabilitation process of the patients in the intervention group will be supported by the mobile application (afterAMI) with synchronized, dedicated web page. Patients in the intervention group will be given an access to educational data regarding their individualized diseases. Additionally every patient will receive regularly messages with notifications regarding lifestyle and adherence to the therapy. All reported vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, weight and many more) will be analyzed every day and in case of need a short message will be sent to the patient with indication to go to the primary healthcare clinic/hospital. Additionally, application will send notifications with reminders to take drugs.
