NCT06400927

Brief Summary

The aim of this pilot randomized study is to examine whether integrating the SIRIO-HF virtual assistant (VA) into the outpatient management of participants recently discharged from hospital with a new diagnosis of heart failure (HF), may reduce the need for regular medical assessment and the healthcare burden, reduce variability in healthcare, and meet with participant satisfaction, without compromising participant safety and overall care quality.
