Overview
The main goal is to learn how HeartInsight is used in clinical routine care. HeartInsight is a heart failure monitoring and notification tool within BIOTRONIK's Home Monitoring System. HeartInsight combines patient data as collected by the implanted devices to alert the attending physicians to impending worsening of heart failure events of the patients. This study will create a sound and seamless documentation of approximately 150 HeartInsight alerts, their processing, subsequent interventions and disease progressions. The data will be analyzed to characterize and quantify the use of HeartInsight in a clinical routine set-up.The patient population consists of heart failure patients with BIOTRONIK CRT-D devices that support HeartInsight.
