Clinical Trial Description

Next steps The Future Patient study - telerehabilitation of HF patients II

Based on the preliminary results from FP I (being published fall 2020) and a review of literature, the investigators would like to improve our telerehabilitation program and technologies in order to prepare for implementation of the FTP and technologies.

• The HF patients in FP I expressed that the KCCQ was too long when having to complete the questionnaire every other week. Therefore, the investigators would like to test a shorter questionnaire HeartQoL (ESC) as a patient-reported outcome tool every month.

• Video consultations instead of physical meetings with doctors and nurses at the hospital. Currently, there is a lack of evidence regarding the use of video to decrease physical visits at the hospitals instead of video consultations.

• Test of algorithms for detecting an increase in weight on two days following clinical cardiac guidelines (Ponikowski et al 2016). ;
