NCT02068118

Brief Summary

Targeted population: Patients with heart failure causing hospitalization during the last twelve months. Hypothesis: The number of all cause deaths and hospitalizations will be smaller for the Telecardiology group than for the reference group (standard follow-up care). An 18 months period of observation is required. Main goal: To compare the rate of all cause deaths and hospitalizations of patients with heart failure between the Telecardiology group and the reference group after 18 months of monitoring.

Study Arms (2)

Standard care

NO INTERVENTION

Standard follow-up, with conventional monitoring involving consultations and monitoring by their general practitioners or referring cardiologists

Tele-cardiology group

EXPERIMENTAL

Telecardiology Program

Device: Telecardiology program

Interventions

The telecardiology program is a combination of a scale, a device asking the patients questions about the symptoms associated with their heart failure, and regular phone calls made by nurses. Automatic algorithms have been built-up in order to detect early the need for a hospitalization due to heart failure.
