Preventive Care for the Health of Society

Going for Zero

Across all OMRON Healthcare’s activities, "Zero" is what we’re aiming to achieve in three key fields that impact daily life for so many people: cardiovascular disease, respiratory issues, and life-limiting chronic pain. We join forces with key partners throughout the world, to deliver cutting-edge innovation to support preventive healthcare as we strive for a world with three zeros.

  • Zero heart attacks and strokes

  • Zero respiratory issues

  • Zero life-limiting chronic pain

Cardiovascular

Zero Heart Attacks and Strokes

Our goal of achieving “Zero” cerebrovascular and cardiovascular events is driven by a three-stage prevention approach: preventing disease onset, slowing progression, and avoiding recurrence. With advancements in artificial intelligence, early detection of hypertension and personalized treatment optimization using home-measured vital data are bringing this future within reach.

Respiratory

Zero Respiratory Issues

The number of people affected by respiratory diseases continues to rise, particularly in emerging economies. To address this growing need, we aim to support more households with therapy devices, symptom-management solutions, and care services that help reduce escalating medical costs and ease the burden on patients and their families.

Pain Management

Zero Life-Limiting Chronic Pain

Chronic pain can significantly diminish quality of life by limiting daily activities. That’s why we are committed to advancing devices that incorporate next-generation TENS technology, helping more people live each day with greater comfort, mobility, and freedom from pain.

Digital Health

Unite Personal and Professional Care in One Trusted Digital Ecosystem

Globally, we face a growing shortage of doctors and nurses — while the need for care keeps rising. At the same time, too much care is reactive. Patients are treated too late, when problems could have been prevented altogether. We’re wasting time. Time that could be used where it matters most. To fix this, we don’t just need more hands. We need smarter systems. We need to empower people to stay healthy at home — and give professionals tools to focus on those who truly need them. That’s where digital health comes in. But only if done right.
