Rehabilitation after cardiac incidents are inseparable and necessary part of therapy that allows almost all patients quickly and stress free return to normal family and professional life. The most common cause of abandonment of the traditional process of cardiac rehabilitation in the hospital medical facility is the distance from the place of residence, travel costs, the need to involve other family members or dismissals from work.
With telemedicine, a patient may benefit from daily rehabilitation: practice at home, ride a bike or march, even in acute heart failure or myocardial infarction. Type of the effort is appropriately chosen and then constantly monitored by a doctor who on the basis of progress also determines the dosage of drugs and other proceedings. With telemedicine patient trains at any place and time, without time-consuming commuting to a hospital.

He discussed specific examples of usage of Pro-PLUS solutions in difficult to detect and rare disorders, eg. arrhythmias, syncope or conduction disorders.
He particularly focused on the pre-selection service offered by the company Pro-PLUS. It consists in recording a large number of tests (every 3 minutes) at a specific time, eg. for a month. Thousands of made records are selected to those that show irregularities. It is important material for diagnosis by a doctor. Tomasz Zieliński emphasized that the service guarantees 80% detection efficiency of disorders after 14 days of using.
He explained the effect of Telemedical Platform, discussed the issue of cardiac rehabilitation and secondary prevention that can help in obesity and hypertension treatment. A particular interest was short-term telemonitoring service that focuses on the elderly. It provides geolocation and geofencing option, which allows the determination of the place of residence of the patient and so called "safe zones" in which they can move.
