Testing remote heart monitoring to improve heart outcomes
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study checks whether starting remote wireless heart monitoring for people with heart failure helps improve important heart outcomes. It may help your care team catch warning signs earlier by receiving your heart data from home.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have heart failure with an ejection fraction (how strongly your heart pumps) of 40% or less
- You are able and willing to use a Biotronik wireless monitoring device (ICD or CRT)
- You are older than 20 years
- You are starting remote monitoring for the first time (new to the program)
- You can be expected to live at least 6 months, and you can understand and sign the consent form
- You are not currently in another clinical trial where remote monitoring would interfere with that study

This trial checks whether using a smartphone or tablet to monitor heart failure symptoms from home is feasible and helps people do better. You may be asked to track your symptoms and health data, and the team will see if this approach can work safely.
This trial studies whether using a remote monitoring device for people with certain heart devices improves outcomes and is worth the effort/cost. It looks at results for different patient groups and needs people to actively use the monitoring system.
This trial tests whether remote monitoring of your implanted heart device can help your doctors better manage your heart failure. It is for people with certain types of pacemakers or defibrillators who are willing to share their device data remotely.
This trial is testing a special monitor (BIOMONITOR) that tracks your heart function and sends data wirelessly to your doctor. It aims to help manage heart failure by catching early signs of trouble so you can get treatment sooner.
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.
This trial tests whether checking in remotely (telemonitoring) helps doctors adjust heart failure medications more effectively. It is for people newly diagnosed with heart failure who have reduced pumping strength and signs of fluid buildup.
