The Digital Ultrasound Revolution in Managing CVD and Diabetes Patients

Digi4Care Pilot 2: point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) for cardiovascular and diabetes patients — plus telemedicine and remote training for healthcare teams. In this episode we explore the digital ultrasound revolution in prehospital and emergency care: how handheld, smartphone-connected POCUS devices bring ultrasound imaging to the patient's bedside and into the ambulance, why cardiovascular and diabetes patients are an ideal group for these tools, and how telemedicine lets experts guide and teach colleagues remotely — even across borders. We also look at what the pilot's teaching model (online vs face-to-face training of healthcare professionals) reveals about scaling these skills across Europe. GUESTS Dr Viktória Vadas — Anaesthesiologist, Semmelweis University, Hungary Akos Tiboldi — Anaesthesiologist & Intensive Care Physician; Researcher, Ludwig Boltzmann Institute, Austria HOST Šimon Jeseňák ABOUT DIGI4CARE Digi4Care is a transnational project bringing digital health solutions into primary and emergency care across Hungary, Bulgaria, Romania and Slovakia. The goal is to validate and introduce innovative screening, ultrasound and telemedicine tools that support earlier detection, better patient pathways and more effective, informed decision-making in everyday healthcare.
