Phone game to help you manage heart failure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a sensor-connected digital game (played on a phone) can help people manage heart failure day-to-day. It’s for adults who recently needed hospitalization and are able to do light activity and use a phone.

This trial tests a digital health app and remote monitoring system to help people with heart failure manage their condition at home. It may be a good fit if you're stable and able to use a smartphone or tablet.
This trial tests if a smartphone app or similar remote tools can help doctors catch early signs that heart failure is getting worse in people who have a defibrillator (ICD) or biventricular pacemaker (CRT) that sends data to the clinic. Participating helps researchers figure out if this type of check-in from home works better than standard care.
