Technologies, Features, and Study Objectives of the Connected Health Innovation Research Program (C.H.I.R.P.). A, Examples of specific technologies and unique features; B, Components of C.H.I.R.P.; C, Study objectives of C.H.I.R.P. for various forms of clinical studies. Retrospective analyses on clinical outcomes and user/patient satisfaction and adoption of the technologies will be investigated. Future prospective studies will interrogate how these technologies promote health in patients with or at risk for cardiovascular disease, especially in cancer survivors. Case studies will specifically test how these technologies can be used in unique cardiology or cardio-oncology patient circumstances. Projects will assess trends and provide foundational insight on study participants' satisfaction and adoption of the technologies. We will also investigate changes in short-term clinical outcomes among users compared to their own baseline. Our goal is to use findings from these retrospective and prospective studies on the general population to provide insight that can guide case and prospective studies for patients in cardio-oncology. These studies will advance connected health research by forming alliances with companies providing innovative methods for monitoring and fostering cardiovascular health and wellness in the general population, with application to cancer survivors. The broad array of patient-facing and clinician-facing digital health technologies is paralleled by a mixed group of users. Templates from Infograpia were used in the making of this graphic.
