Performance of a HeartLogic^TM Based Care Path in the Management of a Real-World Chronic Heart Failure Population.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

Early detection of impending fluid retention and timely adjustment of (medical) therapy can prevent heart failure related hospitalizations. The multisensory cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) based algorithm HeartLogic^TM aims to alert in case of impending fluid retention. The aim of the current analysis is to evaluate the performance of the HeartLogic^TM guided heart failure care path in a real-world heart failure population and to investigate whether the height of the index and the duration of the alert state are indicative of the degree of fluid retention.

Methods

Consecutive adult heart failure patients with a CIED and an activated HeartLogic^TM algorithm were eligible for inclusion. Patients were followed up according to the h
