Product Demo: Supporting Patients Post-Myocardial Infarction (Heart Attack) with SeamlessMD

Each week, SeamlessMD is highlighting how our platform supports patients and care teams for specific surgical procedures or health conditions.

Our solution uses a patient’s own smartphone, tablet, or desktop computer to guide them with health system-specific, step-by-step guidance via reminders, education and symptom monitoring.

This week’s spotlight: Post-Myocardial Infarction (Heart Attack) Care.

Highlights from the Post-Myocardial Infarction Care Journey

‍

Personalized Recovery Setup‍

• Patients begin with a tailored setup survey to capture medical history (e.g., diabetes, prior cardiac implants, physical limitations).
• Questions dynamically adapt the program – for example, patients with mobility challenges won’t be shown walking-based tasks.
• Visual aids help patients understand treatment-related terms, such as stents.

Daily Health Check-Ins & Symptom Monitoring

• ‍‍Patients complete daily surveys to track common warning signs after a MI and related treatment - symptoms like chest pain, mood, and wound healing.
• Smart alerts provide urgent recommendations (e.g., seek emergency care for chest pain or shortness of breath).
• If they had a recent cardiac procedure, patients can upload wound photos to share with their care team, supporting early detection of complications.

Medication Support & Side Effect Management

• ‍‍Patients receive guidance on taking their prescribed medications correctly and consistently.
• The program educates on side effects (e.g., ACE inhibitor–related cough) and provides recommendations such as contacting a pharmacist or requesting blister packs for better adherence.
• Dietary support is built in, including prompts about sodium and potassium restrictions.

Education & Lifestyle Guidance

• An Educational Library offers resources on life after a heart attack, including nutrition, emotional support, and safe activity levels.
• Video content from trusted organizations like the American Heart Association reinforces best practices for recovery.
• Practical “Learn Why / Learn How” tools help patients understand not just what to do, but why it matters.

Ongoing Progress Tracking

• Patients can visualize trends in blood pressure, mood, and other vital indicators over time.
• This tracking fosters engagement and enables more informed conversations with caregivers and providers.

Why it matters
