Overview

Feasibility of personalized web-based HF tools remains untested; leaves open questions on implementation, acceptability, and clinical impact.

Structured PICO

Does a web-based interactive platform improve patient-reported health status and engagement in patients with HFrEF?

P
Population
Patients with heart failure and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (n=26) recruited from an outpatient HF clinic in Denmark.
I
Intervention
Patient-centered and personalized tools coupled with a Web-based, shared care and interactive platform to monitor health status via the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) and register weight for 3 months.
O
Outcome
Patient-reported health status (KCCQ), self-care behavior, and patient experiences/expectations at 3-month follow-up.patient reported

A web-based interactive platform for monitoring health status in HFrEF patients is feasible and generally well-received, though its impact on health status is mixed.
