Brief Summary
The goal of this prospective, multicenter, single-arm, open-label clinical trial (Strategy TO Prevent Decompensated Heart Failure) is to evaluate the 6month incidence of heart failure hospitalization (HFH) and all cause mortality in patients managed with haemodynamically guided treatment using the Seerlinq telemedical monitoring system.

Study Arms (1)
Seerlinq intervention arm
EXPERIMENTALParticipants in the intervention arm will be haemodynamically-guided based on the results from the Seerlinq telemedical monitoring system.
Interventions
Participants will use the Seerlinq telemedical monitoring system and receive standardized remote training to perform regular photoplethysmography (PPG) measurements and symptom reporting. Heart failure management will be hemodynamically guided, with treatment decisions based primarily on trends in estimated left ventricular filling pressure (LVFP) derived from Seerlinq. The therapeutic goal is to reduce elevated LVFP through adjustment of diuretics, vasodilators, or neurohormonal agents. Additional parameters-including heart rate, patientreported fatigue and shortness of breath, and home blood pressure values-will support individualized therapy titration. If elevated LVFP persists despite remote treatment adjustments, patients will be scheduled for inperson clinical evaluation. Guidelinedirected medical therapy (GDMT) will be uptitrated according to hemodynamic tolerance following a prespecified treatment protocol aligned with current heart failure management guidelines. .
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Males and females aged ≥ 18 years.
- Able to understand, and willing to provide written informed consent.
- Stated willingness to comply with all study procedures and lifestyle considerations and availability for the duration of the study.
- Diagnosis of chronic heart failure in NYHA class II or III
- Able to stand for 2 minutes
- Access to necessary resources for participating in a technology-based intervention (smartphone, blood pressure monitor, internet access).
You may not qualify if:
- The participant may not enter the study if ANY of the following apply:
- Use of other services for telemedical monitoring for heart failure.
- Renal failure with a Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) \<25 ml/min or requiring renal replacement therapy.
- Pregnancy, female participant lactating or planning pregnancy during the course of the trial.
- Complex congenital heart disease
- Subjects with known pulmonary hypertension (WHO category 1 or 3/4/5)
- Inability to perform regular measurements alone or with help of a caregiver.
- Other possible unforeseen medical conditions that the investigator deems unsafe for study participation.
