How we can help...
As a Registered NDIS Provider, we can provide an efficient and easy way to keep track of your heart health.
The heart can be impacted by varying conditions and injuries.
Our featured device, ECGme, can help the NDIS monitor your heart activity giving you the peace-of-mind you need.
Neurodevelopmental
Disorders
Down syndrome: Individuals with Down syndrome often have congenital heart defects and are at increased risk for cardiovascular disease and impacts on the Autonomic Nervous System, while medications side effects also create higher risk
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD): Research indicates that individuals with ASD may have an increased risk of cardiovascular issues due to factors like stress, anxiety, and potential side effects of medications
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD): Medications commonly used to treat ADHD, such as stimulants, can affect heart rate and blood pressure, impacting cardiovascular health
Physical Disability
Multiple Sclerosis (MS): MS can affect the autonomic nervous system, leading to cardiovascular issues such as dysautonomia, which includes symptoms like abnormal heart rate and blood pressure regulation
Cerebral Palsy: Individuals with cerebral palsy often have an increased risk of cardiovascular issues due to physical inactivity, obesity, and other related health conditions
Spinal Cord Injury: Spinal cord injuries can significantly impact the autonomic nervous system, leading to cardiovascular dysregulation, including hypotension, bradycardia, and other autonomic dysfunctions
Acquired Brain Injury
Stroke: A stroke can result in autonomic nervous system dysfunction and cardiovascular issues, including arrhythmias and blood pressure variability
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI): TBIs can lead to autonomic dysfunction, impacting heart rate, blood pressure, and other cardiovascular parameters
Psychosocial Disability
Mental Health Conditions: Psychosocial disabilities arising from conditions like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, severe anxiety, and depression have a strong association with cardiovascular issues. Factors such as stress, medication side effects, and lifestyle behaviours contribute to increased cardiovascular risk
Neurological Disability
Epilepsy: Some individuals with epilepsy experience autonomic changes during seizures, which can affect cardiovascular function, including heart rate variability and potential for sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP)
Parkinson’s Disease: Parkinson’s disease frequently involves autonomic dysfunction, leading to cardiovascular issues such as orthostatic hypotension and heart rate variability
