Why the study?
Do mHealth interventions improve outcomes in patients with heart failure?
Do mHealth interventions improve outcomes in patients with heart failure?
Current evidence is insufficient to conclusively determine the impact of mHealth interventions on heart failure outcomes due to methodological limitations in existing studies.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Do not yet implement mHealth routinely in heart failure; leaves open the need for rigorous RCTs.
Further research is needed to conclusively determine the impact of mHealth interventions on HF outcomes. The limitations of the current studies (eg, inadequate sample size, quasi-experimental design, use of older mobile phone models, etc) should be taken into account when designing future studies.
