Strategic objectives
Coala Solutions strategic goal is to improve the quality of life and clinical outcomes for millions of patients affected by cardiovascular diseases. This is made possible by offering patients and healthcare solutions for non-invasive and patient-centered predictive diagnostics.
The background to the development of Coala Heart Monitor was that the measurement equipment the healthcare system uses often requires physical visits, does not engage the patient in their own care, has a lack of accuracy and often leads to long waiting times.
Coala Solutions strategic and operational objectives are to:
- Be a market-leading platform provider for non-invasive long-term monitoring and diagnostics of heart and lung patients in everyday life.
- Offer markets where the Company is established products and services that are covered by local insurance systems and thus can be made available at no cost to the patient.
- Deliver patient-centred and user-friendly products, leading to high utilization/compliance and thus increasing the likelihood of a positive clinical outcome.
