Why the study?
The rising number of patients with CIEDs has made traditional in-office control difficult, necessitating a dedicated organizational model for remote control and monitoring.
Does an intrahospital organizational model of remote monitoring data sharing improve the global management of patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices?

This document proposes an intrahospital organizational model for remote monitoring of CIEDs to address the increasing number of patients and the limitations of traditional in-office follow-up.
May improve CIED patient management via structured remote monitoring; extends guidelines with a practical dedicated-team model.
: In recent years, the increasing number of patients with a cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) has required different approaches in terms of the device's control and surveillance. It is increasingly difficult to keep the traditional in-office protocol device's control: we must think of a different organization dedicated to the activity of remote control and monitoring (RC/RM) of devices and patients.A CIED team structured with nurses, technicians and physicians should be organized inside the hospital, with the aim of CIED patients' managing and of creating a network between the various departments.Small hospitals may not be able to manage independently the CIEDs RC/RM and it is possible to hypothesize the creation of a collaborative network between neighbouring structures.This activity must combine the use of technology with the ability to take care of patients and to maintain adequate and meaningful relationships.

Zanotto et al. (2020) conducted a review in Patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED). Intrahospital organizational model of remote monitoring data sharing was evaluated. An intrahospital organizational model utilizing a dedicated CIED team and collaborative networks is proposed to manage the remote control and monitoring of patients with cardiac implantable devices.
