Abstract

Since cardiac diseases cause the major amount of money spent in medical care, IT solutions that support patients in the rehabilitation phase are desirable. Such systems can motivate and guide patients in order to exercise frequently and hence to avoid another cardiac event. Such telemedical applications have posses a very special and heterogeneous user group. Therefore User Centered Design is crucial. We present a system setup and user interface design that was prototypically build for this kind of patients.
