New Delhi [India], April 12:OMRON Healthcare, the leading player in the home monitoring health solutions space, has announced its next initiative with Tricog Health, a renowned company in the Medtech space addressing cardiovascular conditions (OMRON and Tricog joined hands in 2023 to announce foray into remote home heart monitoring and management segment). This collaboration involves launching and deploying "KeeboHealth", a connected and AI-based cardiac care solution aimed at improving heart failure management through remote monitoring and personalized care solutions.
Striving to empower doctors and patients, KeeboHealth is a sophisticated platform integrating state-of-the-art AI-based medical technology with data analytics, leveraging home ECG monitoring to enhance the ability of healthcare providers to manage patient care efficiently. Besides the digital ecosystem, it offers a range of OMRON products- particularly home ECG monitors along with Blood Pressure Monitors and Weighing Scales - to help cardiac care patients enhance monitoring and in turn receive more effective & timely treatment strategies from their doctors.
As per the studies conducted by Tricog in 2024, the early patient data in India showcased the transformative impact of KeeboHealth's Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) solution on heart failure management, delivering a remarkable 30% reduction in hospital readmission rates and a 45% improvement in adherence to Guideline-Directed Medical Therapy (GDMT). This highlights how KeeboHealth enables early intervention, better medication titration, and sustained patient engagement. These outcomes reinforce Tricog's commitment to leveraging digital health innovations to improve patient outcomes, reduce healthcare costs, and enhance chronic disease management at scale.
According to Dr Charit Bhograj, CEO & Founder of Tricog Health, "KeeboHealth is a lifeline of hope for heart failure patients. Powered by advanced AI, it personalises care and continuously monitors patients to detect early signs of trouble, ensuring timely, tailored interventions. This smart approach enhances individual outcomes and brings much-needed optimism, especially in areas with limited healthcare resources. With KeeboHealth, patients can feel truly supported on their journey towards better heart health."
Elaborating on OMRON's motivation to collaborate with this solution, Hiroshi Ogawa, MD, OMRON Healthcare India, states, "Through this collaboration, OMRON strengthens its position as a key player rooting for the utilization of home ECG devices in the preventive healthcare sector and demonstrates its commitment to advancing medical technology in remote cardiac care. This is a step ahead in the realization of our vision "Going for Zero" which is all about reducing cardiac events by addressing the evolving needs of healthcare professionals and patients through customized and high-quality solutions such as home ECG-based monitoring."
Katsuyuki Yamamoto, Senior Manager, Corporate Planning and New Business, OMRON Healthcare India, further added, "Continuing with this collaborative effort, Tricog and OMRON aspire to establish newer standards in preventive healthcare and contribute towards transforming the Indian cardiac healthcare landscape, which continues to face challenges such as a shortage of doctors and the financial burden of healthcare expenditure."

KeeboHealth integrates Tricog's AI-driven insights with OMRON's trusted home monitoring to deliver real-time patient data and actionable intelligence. This collaboration empowers doctors with faster, informed decisions, improving outcomes and reducing hospitalizations--bringing world-class heart care closer to patients."
As OMRON and KeeboHealth prepare to introduce this transformative solution to the market by early April 2025, the healthcare industry can expect a paradigm shift in the way patient care is delivered and managed in the remote cardiac care segment.
