Lyfe Digital Heart Failure Clinic has opened in India, according to an announcement made on Tuesday by Lupin Digital Health, a division of the pharmaceutical company Lupin that specializes in cardiac digital medicines.

Cardiologists and caregivers can efficiently manage heart failure patients from the comfort of their homes with the use of the e-clinic.

The virtual clinic offers in-office consultations together with care and patient monitoring at home. To improve patient health outcomes, a team of experts, including paramedics, nurses, cardio-therapists, health coaches, and care managers, collaborate with the treating cardiologist.

The system uses cutting-edge technology to give patients individualized care routes, emergency services, and educational resources while also giving doctors real-time updates.

Over 10 million Indians are currently affected by heart failure, which is a degenerative condition that necessitates frequent hospitalizations and is the main reason for cardiac fatalities. The Lyfe clinic is designed to relieve the mounting strain on the healthcare system brought on by the rising number of heart failure cases in India.

Rajeev Sibal, president of the India region formulations, stated to ET, ‘We would like to work with every cardiologist in India, supplementing them with a multidisciplinary team of experts to help them effectively treat their heart failure patients.

‘Our solution combines AI-guided software and FDA/CE-approved devices to provide clinically actionable alerts and insights,’ stated Sibal.

‘The initial results of this new initiative have been encouraging, with 88% compliance, improved biovitals, and reduced re-hospitalization,’ said Sidharth Srinivasan, CEO of Lupin Digital Health.

With the help of the American College of Cardiology’s (ACC) patient education materials, care pathway recommendations, and clinical inputs, Lupin Digital Health and the ACC have formed a partnership to enable healthcare providers and caregivers to provide the best possible patient care.
