The article "Guideline-Based Cardiovascular Risk Assessment Delivered by an mHealth App: Development Study" has been accepted for publication in the journal JMIR Cardio. The HerzFit app, which was developed with the participation of our research associate Benedikt Perl, contains the first guideline-based digital risk calculator for the individual assessment of cardiovascular disease risk. Users receive a personalised heart age and the risk of cardiovascular disease recurrence. The free calculator is already used by up to 10,000 monthly users.
The HerzFit app also offers support in developing healthy habits in the areas of nutrition, stress, exercise and smoking. The DigiMed Bayern project will run until November 2024
