Testing a heart failure alert system in routine clinical care

This trial tests HeartInsight, an alert system built into certain implanted heart devices that monitors seven key body signals to predict when you might experience a heart failure crisis. The study will follow about 100 patients in Italy for one year to see how well this system works in everyday medical practice and whether it helps doctors catch problems earlier.

Heart failure hospitalizations are a major burden on patients and hospitals. Earlier testing showed this alert system could predict two-thirds of heart failure emergencies up to 42 days in advance, but doctors need real-world evidence that it actually helps when used in regular clinical care.
