Abstract
We investigated whether the application of a home-based telemonitoring system could decrease hospital admissions and emergency room visits in 30 patients with severe congestive heart failure compared with 51 patients with congestive heart failure who received standard therapy. Emergency room visits (1 vs 11) and hospitalizations (13 vs 36) were decreased in the telemonitored group (both p <0.05).Entities:
