CoroPrevention Patient Story 1

We are pleased to launch the first testimonial in our new series of patient stories, highlighting the experiences of participants in the CoroPrevention . These stories provide insight into how the project supports individuals in managing their cardiovascular health.

As part of the project, our partners from the University of Lisbon recently collected a testimonial from Mr. João Abreu, a participant in CoroPrevention. Hearing directly from participants helps illustrate the impact of the project and its benefits in everyday life.

Key Insights from the Testimonial

Mr. Abreu emphasized the importance of taking an active role in managing his cardiovascular health. He highlighted the value of digital tools that support daily habits and help participants understand risk factors more clearly. In his view, CoroPrevention not only assists in managing his condition but also provides guidance and education that build confidence in making lifestyle changes.

Supporting the Mission of CoroPrevention

His story reflects the project’s key objectives:

- Personalising prevention strategies to meet individual needs

- Supporting long-term lifestyle changes for better health outcomes

- Strengthening collaboration between patients and healthcare professionals

We extend our gratitude to João Abreu for sharing his experience, and to Assistant Prof. Rita Pinto from the Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de Lisboa for her dedication to engaging with the community.

Through these stories, we aim to highlight the human side of cardiovascular prevention and demonstrate how proactive, personalised, and patient-centred approaches can make a meaningful difference.
