Why the study?
Do remote monitoring tools in cardiac implantable electronic devices accurately predict worsening heart failure to avert hospitalizations?
Do remote monitoring tools in cardiac implantable electronic devices accurately predict worsening heart failure to avert hospitalizations?
Remote monitoring in heart failure may need to shift from crisis detection to continuous health maintenance and dynamic therapy adjustment to improve clinical utility.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Limited accuracy of device measurements warrants caution against sole use to avert HF hospitalizations; leaves open whether continuous maintenance strategies could improve utility.
Hawkins et al. (2015) studied this question.
