Get to know CleverHealth Network’s Home Dialysis project! 👉 HUS Helsingin yliopistollinen sairaala and Fujitsu have been collaborating within the CleverHealth Network to increase home dialysis for kidney patients. 👉 The new solution allows self-monitoring of blood pressure, weight, and dialysis outcomes by patients themselves, as well as remote monitoring by healthcare professionals. 👉 Using home dialysis improves the overall wellbeing of the patient, increases independence from hospitals, and lengthens life expectancy. It also lowers the extremely high costs linked to dialysis treatment. 👉 The R&D project has now been finalised, and the automatic system has been very well received by home dialysis patients. Next, the solution will be tested in clinical use by HUS. Want to know more?
