Summary

This study tested a new way to care for people with heart failure after they leave the hospital. Over 500 patients used a home monitoring system to track symptoms and weight, along with nurse education and a follow-up visit. The goal was to see if this approach could reduce hospital readmissions and improve survival in older, frail patients.

Who is studied

The study population consisted of adults with heart failure managed in routine clinical practice at a tertiary care center in Lyon, France. Most participants were enrolled following a recent hospitalization for acute heart failure, while a smaller proportion were included after outpatient evaluation with a history of heart-failure hospitalization within the prior 12 months. The population was predominantly older and medically complex, with a high burden of comorbidities, polypharmacy, and functional vulnerability. Many participants met criteria for frailty and had limitations that could affect self-management, such as mobility impairment, sensory deficits, or cognitive difficulties. Despite this, the majority were living at home at the time of enrollment, often with support from caregivers or community services.This cohort reflects a real-world ambulatory heart failure population at high risk of rehospitalization and functional decline, representative of older patients commonly encoun
