Introduction: Implantable defibrillator devices (ICDs) can be used for remote monitoring of different variables, including some related to Heart Failure (HF). Two different algorithms (TriageHF and HeartLogic) arise by combining some of these variabl...

Background: The TriageHF algorithm provides remote monitoring for heart failure (HF), but its clinical implementation is limited by a high rate of false positive alerts. Objective: To assess whether incorporating alarm duration and individual time at...

Introduction: The prevention of heart failure (HF) exacerbation is crucial for patient prognosis, and preventive treatment for potential symptoms and warning signs is essential in this context. The TriageHF © algorithm has been retrospectively v...

Heart failure (HF) admissions are burdensome, and the mainstay of prevention is the timely detection of impending fluid retention, creating a window for medical treatment intensification. This study evaluated the accuracy and performance of a Triage-...

Background: Heart failure (HF) is a chronic disease with a steadily increasing prevalence, high mortality, and social and economic costs. Furthermore, every hospitalization for acute HF is associated with worsening prognosis and reduced life expectan...

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...

Heart failure (HF) poses a substantial global burden due to its high morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. Accurate prognostication is crucial for optimizing treatment, resource allocation, and patient counseling. Prognostic tools range from si...

Background: This study compared the accuracy of diagnosing left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (DD) between emergency physician (EP)-performed focused cardiac ultrasound (FCU) and cardiologist-interpreted reference standards in adult patients pres...

Early and rapid risk stratification of patients with acute heart failure (AHF) is crucial for appropriate patient triage and outcome improvements. We aimed to develop an easy-to-use, in-hospital mortality risk prediction tool based on data collected...

Background/Objective: Heart failure (HF) is a complex syndrome, with multiple causes. Numerous pathophysiological pathways are activated. Comprehensive and guideline-derived care is complex. A multidisciplinary approach is required. The current guide...
