Summary

This study tests a smartphone app called Medly that helps heart failure patients monitor their health after a hospital stay. The app reminds patients to check their weight and symptoms, and sends the information to their care team. The goal is to see if using the app improves patients' quality of life and reduces the chance of being readmitted to the hospital within 30 days.
