Why GP Dr. Michiela Bruckbauer trusts MESI mTABLET: "Intuitive and efficient."

General practitioners are at the heart of healthcare – bringing together medical expertise, technology, and patient-centred care. In this interview, we speak with Dr. Michiela Bruckbauer, a general practitioner from the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region in Italy, about how integrated diagnostics are changing daily practice.

What influenced your decision to choose MESI mTABLET?

After thorough research, MESI mTABLET stood out due to its intuitive interface and efficiency. The tablet-based solution allows seamless data storage, integrating patient records, lab results, lifestyle parameters, and measurement data (ABI, ECG, spirometry). This enables comprehensive cardiovascular risk assessment and the creation of personalized treatment plans.

Can you describe your initial experience with the MESI mTABLET? How was the onboarding process and support?

I first used MESI mTABLET ABI on diabetic patients to monitor cardiovascular risk. The system quickly classified patients, providing a clear health overview. Its ease of use and real-time data access significantly improved workflow without technical issues.

"MESI representative Gabriele Borsoi provided full support, but the device was so intuitive that minimal training was required. Some minor adjustments were needed, but overall, the learning curve was short."

How has your daily workflow changed?

The real-time measurement of patient parameters has enhanced diagnostic accuracy, efficiency, and data-driven decision-making. We can now track trends over time, improving patient management.

How has MESI mTABLET improved diagnostic efficiency and patient flow?

The most significant change is faster diagnostics. For instance, a patient presented with fatigue, and while initial assessments showed no concerns, an ECG with MESI mTABLET revealed atrial flutter, leading to an immediate emergency referral. This quick detection may have saved the patient’s life. Additionally, the device improves collaboration with specialists by providing easy to share option for a second opinion, ensuring more informed and efficient patient referrals.

"Some specialists I work with are interested in using MESI mTABLET for cardiovascular risk stratification in remote, rural areas. One cardiologist even suggested using it for home visits to detect at-risk patients, improving preventive care."

How have patients responded to your new acquisition?

Patients appreciate the thorough and proactive approach. One diabetic patient, who had never followed dietary advice despite multiple specialist visits, changed her lifestyle after visually seeing her ABI results during a routine check-up. This led to improved blood sugar levels and overall health.

Would you recommend MESI mTABLET to other healthcare professionals?

Absolutely. MESI mTABLET facilitates real-time measurements, risk assessment, and integrated diagnostics, making it an essential tool for proactive and efficient healthcare management.

Dr. Bruckbauer shared her experience using the MESI mTABLET solution, particularly the ABI, ECG, and SPIRO modules. and how it has improved diagnostic efficiency, patient management, and collaboration with specialists. From detecting hidden cardiovascular risks to streamlining workflows, she illustrated why intuitive, real-time diagnostics are becoming essential in modern primary care.
