About this app

Dhadkan is a Mobile App for remotely monitoring and providing medical assistance to the patients of heart failure. It collects patient's data (at any desired interval) on blood pressure, heart rate, and weight, and transmits it to the authorized caregiver (a doctor, nurse or paramedic) who is linked to the patient during the initial registration. It also provides a two-way communication between doctors and patients. In addition, patients have the freedom to send ECG report(s) to the doctor (if needed). Most importantly, it automatically sends a notification to both the doctor and the patient, in case(s) of any drastic changes in patient's data indicating a possibility of imminent heart failure. Thus, it not only eliminates the need for manual monitoring of each patient by the doctor but also helps them in proactively recommending precautionary action during the treatment period.

We strongly believe that this Mobile App will tremendously help in saving the precious lives of heart failure patients
