Overview
Heart failure patients within the HM programme
Description
A prospective, randomized, multi-sectoral multi-centre study with parallel group design.
Application of guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) improves quality of life and decreases hospitalization for heart failure and mortality.
GDMT is in general underused. This also applies to patients who are cared for in the integrative, telemedicine-supported disease management program Herzmobil Tirol (HMT). The Assisted Therapy Optimizing Module has been designed to actively assist network physicians in adhering to and improving guideline-based medical therapy.
