Proof-of-Concept Study of a Smartphone Application Created to Improve Management of Ambulatory Patients With Heart Failure: the Heart Failure Heart Habits Application
This study assesses the ability of ambulatory patients with heart failure (HF) to use a
smartphone application created for the management of patients with chronic HF. This study
will aim:
- To understand the frequency with which ambulatory HF patients engage with this
smartphone application.
- To determine whether patient's knowledge of HF and its management has improved with the
use of this smartphone application.
- To assess improvement in quality of life measures related to the use of this smartphone
application.
- To assess improvement in lifestyle measures related to the use of this smartphone
application.
