Who Are We?
Prolaio believes that continuous learning and collaboration can make a significant difference in how heart care is administered. We are creating smarter ways to address heart disease and heart risks by integrating a connected platform enabled by smart data science to help patients access the care and attention that will inform better treatments and outcomes.
We envision a future where care teams and hospitals can be more effective, the healthcare system can be more efficient, and patients have a better care experience and more fulfilling lives.
This is precision cardiology, and we know it’s within reach.
