Kokoromil Inc., headquartered in Shinjuku, Tokyo, is excited to announce its first appearance at the Stroke Fest 2025, scheduled for October 25-26, 2025. This annual event, organized by the Stroke Festival Executive Committee, aims to foster a community where stroke survivors and the healthy can share joy and knowledge. At our booth, stroke survivors will participate as staff, sharing their experiences and introducing the Home Heart Dock Pro, a groundbreaking at-home ECG monitoring device.
What is the Home Heart Dock Pro?
The Home Heart Dock® series developed by Kokoromil allows users to conduct prolonged ECG tests at home. The top model, Home Heart Dock Pro, can detect signs of sleep apnea and stress, as well as visualize sudden cardiac death risks. At our booth, participants will have the chance to gain insights from stroke survivors regarding heart health and the preventive measures one can take to mitigate stroke risks.
Interactive Experience at Stroke Fest
During Stroke Fest, we will offer a range of activities designed to engage and educate attendees:
- - Experience the Home Heart Dock Pro: Learn how to carry out long-term ECG monitoring within the comfort of your home.
- - Talks and Advice from Survivors: Hear first-hand accounts from stroke survivors, focusing on heart health and preventive care.
- - Exclusive Discounts: A special 20% off will be available for purchases made at the event.
- - Clarifications on Results Reports: Learn about test results and the steps for online consultations with medical professionals following abnormal findings.
We aim to convey the message of preventive healthcare through the narratives of those who have experienced strokes directly, rather than relying solely on medical professionals. This personal approach makes the risk of heart disease and the importance of early detection more relatable to our audience.
Addressing Societal Issues
Atrial fibrillation, an irregular heartbeat, is one of the leading causes of stroke. Often, this condition goes undetected during standard health checks due to a lack of noticeable symptoms and the occasional need for continuous monitoring.
According to the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, heart disease, a primary cause of arrhythmia, is the second leading cause of death in Japan. Stroke ranks fourth. Survivors may face a decline in quality of life (QOL) due to aftereffects, which is a growing social concern.
The Home Heart Dock® provides a unique solution by allowing users to wear a small ECG device that continuously records their heart activity for over nine hours, achieving a 36% detection rate for arrhythmias—approximately 3.6 times more than conventional health check methods.
Kokoromil's Vision
Kokoromil believes that those who have experienced medical issues firsthand hold the strongest messages about healthcare. Our participation in Stroke Fest 2025 is not just about showcasing our technology but empowering individuals to advocate for preventive care.
Takahiro Hayashi, CEO of Kokoromil, commented:
"We wish to integrate life-saving technologies into daily life. By expanding awareness alongside stroke survivors, we aim to build a society united in protecting both heart and brain health."
