Key result
Remote monitoring and telemedicine show potential to improve HF outcomes despite standardization and sustainability challenges.
Why the study?
Heart failure represents a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, prompting the emergence of remote monitoring and telemedicine to improve patient management.
Remote monitoring technologies offer significant potential to improve heart failure management by reducing hospitalizations and enhancing quality of life, but require further standardization.

Heart failure (HF) represents one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. In recent years, remote monitoring (RM) and telemedicine have emerged as a promising strategy to improve the management of patients with HF, reducing hospitalizations and enhancing the quality of life. Through the integration of technologies such as implantable sensors, home monitoring devices, and mobile applications, it is possible to detect clinical changes early, enabling timely interventions. This article provides an overview of available technologies for RM in HF, analyses the clinical benefits observed in various studies, and addresses the remaining challenges, such as the need for standardization, long-term sustainability, and widespread adoption. Remote monitoring offers significant potential to improve clinical outcomes but requires further research and development to optimize its use in clinical practice.
