Case Overview
Harbor Health successfully facilitated a cloud-based multidisciplinary remote consultation for a Mongolian patient with complex cardiovascular conditions, connecting them with top experts from Beijing Fuwai Hospital.
Patient Background
The patient, Mr. E (alias), a middle-aged Mongolian male, had been suffering from paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) for a long time. Recently, his condition relapsed with significantly increased attack frequency, complicated by pulmonary embolism, making it a complex cardiovascular case.
The patient had previously undergone radiofrequency ablation surgery at a local Mongolian hospital, but the surgical outcome was unsatisfactory. Local single-department diagnosis and treatment could not balance arrhythmia control with pulmonary embolism anticoagulation and thrombolysis, and lacked psychological support intervention.
Harbor Health Solution
Upon receiving the patient's request, Harbor Health immediately activated the cross-border difficult case consultation fast track, providing one-stop professional services including medical record organization, medical translation, expert matching, and process coordination throughout the entire process.
Expert Consultation Team
This consultation featured an authoritative and comprehensive team of experts from Beijing Fuwai Hospital's Remote Consultation Center. The Chinese side invited experts from three core departments:
- Cardiology Department - Specialists in cardiac arrhythmias
- Pulmonary Vascular Department - Experts in pulmonary embolism treatment
- Psychology Department - Mental health support
Fuwai Hospital is China's "ceiling" in the cardiovascular field, ranking at the global advanced level in arrhythmia and pulmonary vascular disease diagnosis and treatment.
Consultation Outcome
Through high-definition remote consultation systems, Chinese and Mongolian parties achieved real-time image sharing, synchronized medical record interpretation, and interactive discussion, breaking geographical barriers and achieving "face-to-face" multidisciplinary joint diagnosis and treatment.
After full expert demonstration, a personalized comprehensive treatment plan was developed for the patient. Currently, under the full follow-up and medication guidance of Harbor Health, the patient is strictly following the consultation plan. Symptoms have significantly improved, emotional state is stable, and cardiopulmonary function is gradually recovering.
