A first arrival with connected health
We are pleased to announce the arrival of Thibaut Vauchel-Camus, the first skipper taking part in our study to cross the finish line with the ECG device on board.
A great milestone for the “Heading for connected health” project, led by Espoir Santé Afrique (ESA) and Lycée Félix Proto as part of the Route du Rhum – Destination Guadeloupe 2026.
The ECG device was collected at the finish. A new stage now begins: analysing the data collected to better understand the cardiovascular strain on the skipper throughout this exceptional crossing.
The president of Espoir Santé Afrique, Dr Guy Wéladji, collected the first electrodes from the skipper. This data will help us better understand how the cardiovascular system responds to intense physical and psychological strain.
Congratulations to Thibaut Vauchel-Camus on this performance, and thank you for helping, through his commitment, to advance cardiovascular research and prevention.
The race goes on, and so does our commitment to cardiovascular research and prevention!
Performance at sea, health at the heart of our commitment.
