Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: ICM guided Medical Management GroupExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
A pre-specified management regimen based on standard clinical practice will be provided to the study team in which medical management including medication dosing (focusing on beta-blockers and diuretics) will be monitored and modified using Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices (CIED) and OptiVol Monitor data. Based on CIED and patient engagement data, the study team will adjust medications and dosages, and optimize activity/exercise steps.
Group II: Conventional Management Control GroupActive Control1 Intervention
Non-study physicians will receive CIED/OptiVol data (as in usual care) and its use and the management strategy will be left to his/her discretion. To control for patient contact, patients in the conventional management group will have the same study visits as the interventional group and will include in-person device interrogation, and documentation of any medications changes.
