Sponsor's own description
This is an open randomized clinical trial with two study arms. One group, receiving usual care for heart failure, will be compared to another group, receiving usual care plus active telemonitoring interference. When leaving the hospital, the usual care arm receives a document with a predefined medication scheme and advice for the general practitioner (like it is currently done in usual care). The telemonitoring interference in the other study arm consists of a smartphone application to register medication intake and to transmit the data of an automatic blood pressure device and a balance to a central platform. The goal is to improve medication uptitration (angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitor (ACE-I) and bètablockers (BB)) in heart failure patients and to improve medication compliance.
