Implication

Cohort study demonstrates non-invasive wearable monitoring tracks fluid congestion in heart failure and haemodialysis, highlighting potential utility in preventing hospital admissions.

Key Points

A non-invasive wearable sensor reliably detected fluid congestion changes during decongestion in heart failure and fluid removal during haemodialysis without adverse events.
Change in weight correlated with thoracic impedance (r_sp = -0.64, p = 0.002) in heart failure, and dialysis fluid removal matched impedance changes (r_sp = 0.49).
Assessment of 66 patients across three clinical cohorts demonstrates wearable sensor monitoring tracks congestion, highlighting potential to avert heart failure hospitalizations.
