What the trial is, and whether it could suit you
Background:
Chronic heart failure represents a major public health challenge, affecting approximately 64 million people worldwide and generating high costs in terms of mortality, frequent hospitalizations, and medical expenses. In France, this disease is expected to cause nearly 70,000 deaths and 181,000 hospital admissions in 2022. Current management, based on periodic consultations, fails to effectively prevent acute exacerbations, highlighting the importance of technological solutions such as remote monitoring.
Objective:
This study aims to demonstrate the value of regular monitoring of electrophysiological and mechanical cardiac signals and parameters in patients with chronic heart failure. Its goal is to build a database of signals from an external measuring device (MyHeartSentinel MHS) to identify parameters that evolve in relation to biological and/or hemodynamic changes and/or
