Why attend?
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of avoidable mortality in the UK (1), as well as an indicator and a direct cause of health inequalities (2). The current CVD challenges being faced across the NHS, from conditions such as hypertension, lipid management and heart failure, will be addressed over the two hour online event. We will hear from the innovators directly about how their NHS market ready ideas have been tried, tested and ready to be used to help support with improvements in CVD.
Health Innovation East and a selection of ICBs across the East of England are inviting all NHS colleagues working or interested in improving the populations cardiovascular health to attend an innovations showcase event.
This event will include showcasing a selection of CVD-related innovations sourced from:
- NHS Innovations Accelerator (NIA) programme
- Health Innovation Network horizon scan pipeline of innovations
Innovations will vary from: point of care testing; remote care; decision-making solutions; personalised behaviour change/lifestyle support; solutions tackling language/interpretation barriers, medicine optimisation solutions and more. Specific innovations will be announced closer to the time of the event.
