Title: Continuous remote monitoring of filling pressure

Presentor(s) C. Linde, Stockholm (SE)
Episode 47
Year 2008
Duration 19:26
Shownotes    

"High filling pressures are associated with increased mortality. Monitoring RV pressures and early alerting potentially may prevent HF related hospitalizations. The COMPASS-HF trial has shown a 21% reduction (36% in the NYHA III sub-group) in HF related event rate when patient management included RV pressure monitoring. Long term data indicate continuous RV pressure drop which may modify disease progress."
