Designing a User-Centric Remote Patient Monitoring System to Facilitate Heart Failure Self-Care
Emily Seto, Heather Ross, Joseph A Cafazzo*, Kevin Leonard

Background: Self-care among the heart failure patient population is generally poor and most heart failure patients have low self-efficacy in performing self-care practices. Non-adherence, such as to daily weight measurements and diet, has been found to be a major cause of morbidity and preventable hospital admissions of heart failure patients. Studies suggest that as many as one third to one half of heart failure hospitalizations are preventable. Remote patient monitoring is a potential t...

Mobile Phone-Based Remote Patient Monitoring for Heart Failure Management: a Randomized Controlled Trial
Emily Seto, Kevin J Leonard, Joseph A Cafazzo*, Caterina Masino, Jan Barnsley, Heather J Ross

Background Remote patient monitoring of heart failure patients has been shown to be able to improve health outcomes. Mobile phones are becoming increasingly ubiquitous and economical, but the feasibility and efficacy of an mHealth remote monitoring system is still unknown. The objective of this randomized controlled trial was to determine the effects of a user-centric mobile phone-based remote monitoring system on heart failure outcomes, self-care, and clinical management. Methods One hun...
