Sukoon Care

Sukoon provides personalised cardiac rehabilitation in-person, on-demand and at-home so that heart patients receive affordable, stress-free care. Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is a proven intervention that can greatly reduce the human and economic costs of CVD. It is a treatment plan for patients who have suffered a primary acute event to reduce their risk of mortality by 26% and their risk of rehospitalisation by 42%. CR is extremely effective but because the model of care has been taken from the West, we are yet to see these benefits in lower income countries, where due to resource constraints the Western model is infeasible. Sukoon is changing the model of care to meet the resource constraints of lower income countries. By employing technology, we can make CR home-based - an approach advocated for and tested by many leading researchers in the field. As a result, we can begin to see the full mortality and rehospitalisation benefits of CR. If we were to serve our obtainable market of patients in our beachhead city, tomorrow, we could save 6,100 lives and rehospitalisations in one year. This would drastically reduce pressures on the healthcare system while saving patients £112 million in healthcare costs. As an impact-driven startup, if Sukoon were to serve the whole of our obtainable market in a single country for 5 years, we would save patients £4.4 billion with a social return of per £1 invested. Because your cardiac care matters.
