Summary

This trial will be the first to study the effect of remote patient monitoring with the VitalCare platform on outcomes of ambulatory heart failure patients.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with heart failure who've been hospitalized for it within the last year, can use a smartphone or tablet, and speak English. It's not for pregnant individuals, those awaiting a heart transplant, with severe kidney disease or very poor heart function (LVEF < 35%), or have certain implanted cardiac devices.
What is being tested?
The study tests the VitalCare platform's ability to monitor heart failure patients remotely. It aims to see if this technology improves patient engagement and reduces hospital visits due to worsening heart failure.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves remote monitoring rather than medication, traditional side effects are not expected. However, there may be privacy concerns or stress related to constant health tracking.
