A Mobile Phone–Based Telemonitoring Program for Heart Failure Patients After an Incidence of Acute Decompensation (Medly-AID): Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Abstract: Background Patients with heart failure (HF) are at the highest risk for hospital readmissions during the first few weeks after discharge when patients are transitioning from hospital to home. Telemonitoring (TM) for HF management has been found to reduce mortality risk and hospital readmissions if implemented appropriately; however, the impact of TM targeted for patients recently discharged from hospital, for whom TM might have the biggest benefit, is still unknown. Medly, a mobile phone–based TM s… Show more

“…Cognitive and neurological evaluation are assessed during the OTN virtual consultation with patients and support persons. Based on the data, Medly provides specific real‐time patient self‐management alerts using a clinically validated algorithm 6,8 . These alerts are also forwarded to the patient's care team for review by a nurse practitioner and the primary physician.…”

“…Based on the data, Medly provides specific real-time patient self-management alerts using a clinically validated algorithm. 6,8 These alerts are also forwarded to the patient's care team for review by a nurse practitioner and the primary physician. Decisions are made by the care team to adjust medications, act on symptoms, or trigger IPE if acute decompensation is suspected.…”

“…A variety of mobile apps for information, communication, education, and entertainment purposes have been developed for smartphones [ 3 ], including mobile health care systems. Seto et al [ 4 ] developed a mobile phone–based telemonitoring program for patients with heart failure following acute decompensation. Denono et al [ 5 ] suggested that postoperative mobile apps after ambulatory lumbar discectomy were effective tools for spine surgeons.…”

“…Armstrong et al [7] evaluated the effect of home monitoring via a mobile app on the number of in-person visits following ambulatory surgery. Most studies reported that patients found mobile apps for remote follow-ups to be convenient, safe, and highly satisfactory [4][5][6][7][8]. Reliable remote follow-ups by mobile health care systems have several advantages over face-to-face follow-ups.…”
