Summary

This study tested whether doctors can safely check and adjust pacemakers and defibrillators from a remote location, instead of requiring patients to come into the clinic. 110 adults with these heart devices took part. The goal was to see if remote programming works as well as in-person visits, which could save patients time and reduce the need for travel.
