Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study investigates how wireless monitoring affects the health outcomes of heart failure patients who have implanted pacemakers and defibrillators. It focuses on the frequency of unplanned hospital visits and the early diagnosis of disease exacerbation, comparing patients with and without wireless monitoring. The study also evaluates the progression of the disease and participant satisfaction with the monitoring system.

Why it matters

Who can join: the full rules

Inclusion Criteria:

* consented heart failure patients (LVEF\<=40%) with Biotronik wireless monitoring capable ICD/CRTs aged \>20 years
* patients who are new to remote monitoring

Exclusion Criteria:

* For patients with a life expectancy of less than 6 months. If patient do not understand the contents of wireless monitoring or it is difficult to fill out the consent form due to cognitive decline.

If wireless monitoring is performed with a patient enrolled in another clinical trial which remote monitoring may affect the previous enrolled study.
