Heart failure & cardiomyopathiesCohort study
Association of a Remote Monitoring Programme with All-Cause Mortality and Hospitalizations in Patients with Heart Failure: National-Scale, Real-World Evidence from a 3-Year Propensity Score Analysis of the TELESAT-HF Study
- Retrospective cohort study
- propensity-weighted
- national-scale, real-world
- over 300 healthcare centres
Authors' conclusion
In France, RMP with customized monitoring frequencies and educational strategies was associated with lower all-cause mortality, emergency visits, and time spent in hospital in patients with HF
Study context
- Population
- Patients with heart failure (HF), French SNDS database, August 2018 to December 2022after weighting
- Exposure
- Remote monitoring programme vs standard of care
- Outcome
- All-cause mortality and HF hospital admissions
Main finding
As reported in the abstract
RMP vs SoCEstimate (95% CI)P value
all-cause mortality
HR 0.64(0.59–0.70)
P < 0.0001HF hospitalization rate; neutral association
RR 0.95(0.89–1.02)
Observational data: associations, not effects.
Further findings
| Outcome | RR (95% CI) | P value | |

All-cause mortality, by hospitalization and/or long-term illness status (subgroups)
- Lower mortality with remote monitoring programme (RMP) persisted across subgroups (HR range)
- 0.52 to 0.75
