About

Background

The HEARTS360 dashboard is a template that can be used by any team working on a hypertension or diabetes control project. Our team at Resolve to Save Lives has learned many lessons while developing the Simple.org project and we want to share our best practices with the world. A similar dashboard has been used in India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Ethiopia, and Nigeria to successfully manage over 4 million patients with hypertension.

Please feel free to copy any of the code or ideas that you see in this hypertension dashboard. The code is available for free on Github and is licensed under an MIT License.

Indicator definitions

Definitions are based on the WHO HEARTS indicators. See the bottom of the Hypertension dashboard for clear definitions of each indicator.

If you have questions about how to calculate indicators, please get in contact with our team at Resolve to Save Lives.
