Our initial approach focused on generating funds for heart research, but we realized that pediatric heart technology advancements are another important way to accomplish this purpose.
In 2023 we decided to partner with the Ollie Hinkle Heart Foundation and their Take Heart Collective. Our shared goal is to enhance outcomes in pediatric heart care through collaboration with innovators on cutting-edge advancements.\n\n[/cs_content_seo][/cs_element_layout_column][/cs_element_layout_row][/cs_element_section][cs_element_section _id=”14″ ][cs_element_layout_row _id=”15″ ][cs_element_layout_column _id=”16″ ][cs_element_headline _id=”17″ ][cs_content_seo]Three Categories For Advancements\n\n[/cs_content_seo][/cs_element_layout_column][/cs_element_layout_row][cs_element_layout_row _id=”18″ ][cs_element_layout_column _id=”19″ ][cs_element_image _id=”20″ ][cs_element_headline _id=”21″ ][cs_content_seo]Prediction\n\n[/cs_content_seo][cs_element_text _id=”22″ ][cs_content_seo]Early Recognition\n\n[/cs_content_seo][/cs_element_layout_column][cs_element_layout_column _id=”23″ ][cs_element_image _id=”24″ ][cs_element_headline _id=”25″ ][cs_content_seo]Precision\n\n[/cs_content_seo][cs_element_text _id=”26″ ][cs_content_seo]Personalizing Care\n\n[/cs_content_seo][/cs_element_layout_column][cs_element_layout_column _id=”27″ ][cs_element_image _id=”28″ ][cs_element_headline _id=”29″ ][cs_content_seo]Prevention\n\n[/cs_content_seo][cs_element_text _id=”30″ ][cs_content_seo]Preserving Quality Of Life\n\n[/cs_content_seo][/cs_element_layout_column][/cs_element_layout_row][/cs_element_section][cs_element_section _id=”31″ ][cs_element_layout_row _id=”32″ ][cs_element_layout_column _id=”33″ ][cs_element_headline _id=”34″ ][cs_content_seo]Fitness and Mental Well-Being\n\n[/cs_content_seo][cs_element_text _id=”35″ ][cs_content_seo]Leveraging technology and research to marry together the physical fitness and mental well-being of the heart community. We are currently working to leverage AI with an intelligent algorithm via a smart fitness device unique to a child’s heart diagnosis so they can participate in physical activities proven to lengthen life span.
We have been collaborating with Boston Children’s Cardiac Fitness Team to create AI software with an intelligence company, and measure outcomes in 30 heart kids. Our hope is to expand this work and bring it to the two major children’s hospitals in St. Louis.\n\n[/cs_content_seo][/cs_element_layout_column][cs_element_layout_column _id=”36″ ][cs_element_image _id=”37″ ][/cs_element_layout_column][/cs_element_layout_row][/cs_element_section][cs_element_section _id=”38″ ][cs_element_layout_row _id=”39″ ][cs_element_layout_column _id=”40″ ][cs_element_image _id=”41″ ][/cs_element_layout_column][cs_element_layout_column _id=”42″ ][cs_element_headline _id=”43″ ][cs_content_seo]Smarter Care\n\n[/cs_content_seo][cs_element_text _id=”44″ ][cs_content_seo]Funding smaller technology and research projects to support less invasive treatments, innovations in care at home, smarter inpatient solutions and life-saving community care. Here are a few examples:
3D Echo imaging that reduces the need for cardiac MRI, which requires risky anesthesia.
AI in cardiac ICUs that will serve as an early warning system to prevent decompensation.
Telehealth advancements to overcome economic and technological insecurities and make home care safe and more seamless.
