p-value: p=0.03
A mobile phone-based telemonitoring system with immediate feedback and ease of use improves self-care and clinical management in heart failure patients, though concerns about cost and clinical workload remain.

May support telemonitoring adoption in HF care; leaves open scalability, cost, and workload effects.
Seto et al. (2012) conducted an observational in Heart failure (n=27). Mobile phone-based telemonitoring system vs. Standard care was evaluated on Self-Care of Heart Failure Index (SCHFI) maintenance score (p=0.03). A mobile phone-based telemonitoring system improved heart failure patients' self-care and clinical management by providing real-time physiological feedback, leading to greater self-care maintenance (p=0.03).
