Jana Care applauds the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) launch of the “Home as a Health Care Hub” initiative. This innovative program aims to reimagine the home environment as an integral part of the health care system, with a focus on at-home medical devices. Impediments persist in our health care system, including shortages of primary care physicians and specialists and limited access to health care systems for millions of people. These challenges disproportionately affect minority populations, as well as those living in rural communities and lower-income neighborhoods across the nation.

The FDA recently issued a final rule to strengthen oversight of laboratory developed tests (LDTs), also known as in vitro diagnostics (IVDs). These tests are created and used within a single clinical laboratory. The new rule explicitly places IVDs, even when produced by laboratories, under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, making them subject to increased FDA regulatory oversight. While the FDA emphasizes the importance of reliable LDT results in the interest of patient safety, the American Clinical Laboratory Association (ACLA) opposes the rule, arguing that LDTs are not medical devices and subjecting them to regulation will impede patient access to essential testing in remote or at-home settings. However, Jana Care remain enthusiastic about our progress to deliver the first FDA cleared, at-home blood testing platform for patients with heart failure and chronic kidney disease. Highlights of the final rule include: Phasing out lenient enforcement: The FDA will no longer exercise leniency in enforcing regulations for LDTs. Lab-manufactured tests will now be subject to the same enforcement policies as other tests. Regulation as medical devices: Most LDTs will now be regulated as medical devices, aligning them with other in vitro diagnostics and requiring pre-market review. Motivation behind the rule: The FDA recognizes that LDTs’ risks have increased due to their complexity and widespread use. They believe greater safeguards are necessary. https://lnkd.in/eysanFET

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in America today. While JanaCare’s technology is designed to simplify disease management, preventing heart disease can start with small daily choices. Eating a Heart-Healthy Diet - Focus on fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean proteins. Limit saturated fats, trans fats, cholesterol, salt and added sugars. Regular Exercise - Aim for 30 - 60 minutes of activity daily Maintain a Healthy Weight - Being overweight puts added strain on your heart. The body mass index (BMI) uses height and weight to measure a persons’ body fat percentage.  Avoid Tobacco - Smoking is a major risk factor for heart disease. If you smoke, quitting can lower your risk. Limit Alcohol - Too much alcohol can raise your blood pressure. Sticking to moderate drinking can help to keep things on track. Manage Stress - Ongoing stress can play a role in higher blood pressure and other risk factors for heart disease. Find healthy ways to manage stress, such as exercise, relaxation techniques, meditation or outside support. Regular Checkups - Visit your doctor regularly to monitor your heart health, blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar levels. Stay Informed - Educate yourself about heart disease and its risk factors. Knowledge is power in prevention. Small changes can lead to big results when it comes to heart health. Start today for a healthier heart tomorrow.

Creating new technologies with our customer base in mind is crucial for success. When it comes to at-home blood testing, especially for an aging population, accessibility and convenience are key to improve healthcare disparity. Designing a user friendly testing platform can make a world of difference for those less familiar with the technology. JanaCare’s mission is to design with intent. To anticipate struggles such as, shaking hands or poor eyesight and to work around them in order to produce a better, more user-oriented product. Our CEO, Anh Hoang will share Jana Care’s journey of mindfulness in design concept  and  its impact on clinical outcome this April at the LSX leadership opportunity in London.
