Does telemonitoring reduce all-cause deaths or unplanned hospitalisations in HF patients?
Does telemonitoring reduce all-cause deaths or unplanned hospitalisations in HF patients?
Telemonitoring does not significantly reduce all-cause mortality or unplanned hospitalizations in the general heart failure population, though selected subgroups may benefit.
Telemonitoring should not be routinely used to reduce mortality or hospitalizations in HF; confirms lack of benefit in the general population.
Telemonitoring did not result in a significantly lower rate of all-cause deaths or unplanned hospitalisations in HF patients. The pre-specified subgroup results suggest the telemonitoring approach improves clinical outcomes in selected populations but need further confirmation.
