THE RETENTION PROJECT

is a H2020 funded project conceived to support clinical decision making, clinical monitoring and data-driven interventions for heart failure patients in need of ventricular assist devices (VAD) and patients who received a heart transplant.

Heart failure patients management has a huge impact on health systems due to the required multiple and prolonged hospitalisations of patients and the related patient management costs. Focusing on routine patient-physician or patient-nurse communication following discharge can result in a significant reduction of hospitalizations.

THE HEART OF RETENTION RESEARCH 

RETENTION project is exploiting the technological convergence of state-of-the-art technologies, to develop innovative, transparent, and sophisticated decision-making capabilities and deliver personalized effective interventions for advance heart failure diseases.

GLOBAL INSIGHT CLOUD

The platform supports clinical decision making and evidenced based personalised interventions for HF patients by:

Data analytics using innovative model-driven big data methods, statistical approaches, artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques.

Applying transparent, explainable and verifiable decision making capabilities that leverage the evidence produced by the underlying data analysis and augment clinical studies targeting HF and, potentially, other CVDs.

CLINICAL SITE BACKEND

Patterns detection in the HF disease progression and the quality of life of patients.

Cross checking and validation against the clinical literature.

PATIENT EDGE

Continuous monitoring of medical, clinical, physiological, behavioural, psychosocial, and real-world data for the patients.
