RecoverLINK Technology Pilot for HF Patients

August 28, 2018 updated by: RecoverLINK

Pilot to Assess Feasibility of Using RecoverLINK Technology to Supplement Outpatient Care for Heart Failure Patients

The primary objective is to examine feasibility of incorporating RecoverLINK into the standard of care as a function of (i) user engagement, (ii) user satisfaction, and (iii) workflow efficiency. As secondary objectives, the investigators will collect preliminary data to examine the association between patient engagement with the RecoverLINK app and (i) changes in patient knowledge and behavior, and (ii) hospital readmission(s) at 30, 60, and 90-day time periods post-enrollment.
