Abstract Commercially available health technologies such as smartphones and smartwatches, activity trackers eHealth applications, commonly referred to wearables, are increasingly used both in the leisure healthcare sector for pulse fitness/activity tracking. The aim of Position Paper is identify specific barriers knowledge gaps use particular heart rate (HR) tracking, clinical cardiovascular support their implementation into care. widespread HR fitness tracking provides unparalleled...
The European Society of Cardiology guidelines recommend risk stratification with limited clinical parameters such as left ventricular (LV) function in patients chronic coronary syndrome (CCS). Machine learning (ML) methods enable an analysis complex datasets including transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) studies. We aimed to evaluate the accuracy ML using and TTE data predict all-cause 5-year mortality CCS compare its performance traditional scores.
Arrhythmias and heart failure are common invalidating sequelae in adult patients with congenital disease (CHD). Mobile health (m-Health) enables daily monitoring a timely response that might prevent deterioration. We present an observational prospective registry to evaluate feasibility of m‑Health telemonitoring program for managing arrhythmia, blood pressure symptomatic adults CHD.Symptomatic CHD enrolled program, which evaluates single-lead ECG, weight measurements. In case symptoms extra...
Adults with congenital heart disease (ACHD) often suffer from deterioration related to cardiac arrhythmias, hypertension (HT) or failure (HF), frequently occurring between planned visits. Mobile health (mHealth) could improve management through remote monitoring by enabling swift therapeutic response and detecting new diagnoses. We performed a prospective study employing mHealth in ACHD patients, weekly rhythm, weight blood pressure. In case of consecutive threshold exceeding measurements...
Right ventricular function (RVF) is often selectively declined after coronary artery bypass graft surgery. In adult patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) the incidence and persistence of RVF cardiac surgery unknown. The current study aimed to describe in these patients. Adult CHD operated between January 2008 December 2009 Academic Medical Centre Amsterdam were studied. Clinical characteristics, laboratory tests, surgical data intensive care unit outcome obtained from medical records....
Decrease in quality of life (QoL) left-sided heart failure precedes poor survival, which can be reversed with exercise training. We investigated whether QoL is associated mortality pulmonary arterial hypertension due to congenital disease (PAH-CHD) patients.In this observational study, PAH-CHD adults referred for PAH-specific therapy were included. surveys (SF36) recorded during 2 years therapy. Based on shift SF36 scores period, patients had either decreased or non-decreased QoL....
Video consultation (VC) has been scaled up at our academic centre attempting to facilitate and accommodate patient-provider interaction in times of social distancing during the recent ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.This study evaluates qualitative outcomes with data insights from electronic health record, contrast satisfaction actual use VC.Healthcare providers patients using VC pandemic a large Netherlands were surveyed for user experiences VC. In addition, quantitative technical assessment was...
Abstract Guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) has clear benefits on morbidity and mortality in patients with heart failure; however, GDMT use remains low. In the multicenter, open-label, investigator-initiated ADMINISTER trial, ( n = 150) diagnosed failure reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) were randomized (1:1) to receive usual care or a strategy using digital consults (DCs). DCs contained (1) data sharing from patient clinician (pharmacotherapy use, home-measured vital signs Kansas...
To describe the clinical practice and educational preparation of heart failure (HF) nurses across Europe determine key differences between countries.
Objective Pulmonary arterial hypertension due to congenital heart disease (CHD-PAH) has a poor prognosis. We sought determine whether the biomarker high-sensitivity troponin T (hsTnT) measured on routine visit at outpatient clinic is associated with Patients Consecutive adult CHD-PAH (86% Eisenmenger syndrome) patients referred for advanced medical therapy between January 2005 and March 2007 in Academic Medical Center Amsterdam. severe renal impairment were excluded. Main Outcome Measure The...
Many adults with congenital heart disease (CHD) are affected lifelong by cardiac events, particularly arrhythmias and failure. Despite the care provided, event rate remains high. Mobile health (mHealth) brings opportunities to enhance daily monitoring hence timely response in an attempt improve outcome. However, it is not known if CHD currently using mHealth what type of they may need near future.Consecutive adult patients who visited outpatient clinic at Academic Medical Center Amsterdam...
