Telemonitoring of HFrEF Patients

The aim of this study is to find out whether remote health monitoring can help people with chronic heart failure. For 3 months, some patients use a SiDLY CARE PRO electronic wristband. It measures their physical activity, blood oxygen level and heart rate every 15 minutes. The information is sent electronically to a secure database. The study includes two groups of patients. One group uses the wristband and receives regular cardiology care. The other group receives regular care without remote monitoring. During the study, patients have three visits at the cardiology clinic. Their health, heart failure symptoms and treatment are assessed. They also complete short questionnaires about their quality of life and ability to perform everyday activities. The researchers compare the two groups to see whether remote monitoring is associated with better health and fewer hospital stays or deaths related to worsening heart failure. The study began in February 2023 and is planned to continue until 31 December 2028.
