Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the potential benefits of a new heart failure diagnostic system for heart failure patients with implanted cardiac resynchronization therapy devices. This system consists of patient tools, a new heart failure risk score and a new clinician website. This study will evaluate this new system as a whole and establish the feasibility of implementing it into clinical practice.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Control Arm

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Routine in office visits

Intervention Type OTHER

Heart failure will be managed with scheduled in-office visits every three months.

Integrated Diagnostics Arm

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Integrated diagnositic system

Intervention Type OTHER

Heart failure will be managed using the integrated diagnostic system which consists of patient tools and a new Heart Failure Clinician's website which displays a new Heart Failure Risk score. This Heart Failure Clinician's website will be reviewed every 2 weeks in addition to scheduled in-office visits every three months.
