You know the facts: people are living longer and longer. And as they grow older, they suffer from an increasing number of chronic disorders. The result: healthcare is becoming more expensive every year. And because our population as a whole is ageing, we will soon be looking at a structural shortage of caregivers.

Our response to this evolution? Health monitoring. We give doctors the instruments to follow their patients remotely, which saves both time and money.

Fifthplay develops and sells telemonitoring and e-health products for five specific disorders. They all offer the same direct advantages: user-friendly, safe and less expensive than repeated doctor´s visits.

• Hypertension
• Obesity
• Diabetes
• Heart failure
• COPD

Health monitoring is an interplay between hardware (the measuring instruments in the patient’s possession) and software. Fifthplay has developed two of its own applications that enable doctors to precisely follow the medical data of patients and allow people themselves to watch over their own health.

VitalCare: online monitoring of patient data
VitalFit: online personal health coach

Telemonitoring is becoming increasingly important in the organisation of healthcare. Read more about Belgian and foreign projects, which allow physicians to monitor their patients’ health remotely, on the following pages. Each project is based on Fifthplay software and hardware solutions.
