First seen Mar 30, 2026 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 8 times

Summary

This study tests a telemedicine program for older adults (ages 65-80) with both atrial fibrillation and heart failure in rural China. Village doctors use a digital platform with remote expert support to guide medication and lifestyle changes, including group exercise and wearable monitors. The goal is to see if this approach improves heart failure risk scores and reduces serious events like stroke or hospitalization over three years, compared to usual care.
