Key result
Health technologies represent an emerging opportunity to address gaps in congestive heart failure management and shift ambulatory care to community health services.
Why the study?
CHF is projected to reach epidemic proportions with rising readmissions and unsustainable health budget impacts, creating a need to explore health technologies to address management gaps.
Novel ambulatory health technologies represent an emerging opportunity to address gaps in congestive heart failure management and shift care toward community health services.
Supports integration of ambulatory technologies into community HF services; leaves open confirmation via prospective trials.
INTRODUCTION: It has been estimated that congestive heart failure (CHF) will reach epidemic proportions and contribute to large unsustainable impacts on health budgets for any cardiovascular condition. Against other major trends in cardiovascular outcomes, readmission and disease burden continue to rise as the demographics shift. METHODS: The rise in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) among elderly women will present new challenges. Gold standard care delivers sustainable and cost-effective health improvements using organised care programs. When coordinated with large hospitals, this can be replicated universally. RESULTS: A gradient of outcomes and ambulatory care needs to be shifted from established institutions and shared with clients and community health services, being a sizeable proportion of CHF care. CONCLUSION: In this review, we explore health technologies as an emerging opportunity to address gaps in CHF management.
