University Hospital Galway has become the first hospital in Ireland to introduce a new device designed to help patients suffering from heart failure. The device acts as an early warning sensor to alert medical professionals to the patient’s worsening condition. Over 10,000 new cases of heart failure are diagnosed annually in Ireland. It is a significant public health priority, with patients requiring frequent hospitalisation. Clinicians are alerted if readings go above the thresholds, which allows medication to be adjusted earlier and prevent complications from escalating.
