Cardiovascular Implantable Electronic Devices Enabled Remote Heart Failure Monitoring; What We Have Learned and Where to Go Next.

ABSTRACT: Despite recent developments, heart failure (HF) remains to be a great burden to the individual patient, entailing major morbidity and mortality. Moreover, HF is a great burden to overall healthcare, mainly because of frequent hospitalizations. Timely diagnosis of HF deterioration and implementation of appropriate therapy may prevent hospitalization and eventually improve a patient's prognosis; however, depending on the patient's presentation, the signs and symptoms of HF often offer too little therapeutic window to prevent hospitalizations. Cardiovascular implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) can provide real-time physiologic parameters and remote monitoring of these parameters can potentially help to identify patients at high risk. However, routine implementation of remote monitoring of
