The primary endpoints include mortality, hospital admissions related to heart failure, and visits for worsening heart failure.\n\nMoreover, we will explore the full capabilities of these algorithms, by analysing the association of physical activity, measured by the devices, with the same key outcomes. Additionally, the research will explore the relationship between the absolute values provided by the algorithms and NT-proBNP values.", 'detailedDescription': "Patients will be randomized into two arms: one with the activation of the algorithm and the other with no active algorithm. The algorithm is programmed to alert our team upon detecting a patient at risk of worsening heart failure. When an alarm is triggered, the patient will receive a telephone call from the investigation team. Subsequently, the patient may be scheduled for a hospital visit, or ambulatory medication adjustments can be made.\n\nFor patients in whom the algorithm is deactivated, no such alarm mechanism will be in place.\n\nPatients in both arms will undergo comparison based on relevant heart failure events, defined as follows:\n\n* All-Cause Mortality\n* Hospital Admission for Heart Failure\n* Hospital Visit for Worsening Heart Failure\n* Ventricular Arrhythmias\n* Atrial Arrhythmias\n\nAdditionally, the study will explore the association between physical activity measured by the devices and these specified events.\n\nIn addition to evaluating patient outcomes, a correlation analysis will be conducted to examine the relationship between the absolute value provided by the algorithm and absolute NT-proBNP values. This analysis aims to assess the concordance and potential predictive value of the algorithm's output with established biomarkers, specifically NT-proBNP, in the context of heart failure progression and severity (if possible)."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '85 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Possession of an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) or cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) device that is compatible with the HeartLogic or TriageHF algorithms.\n* Left ventricular ejection fraction at the time of device implantation must be equal to or less than 35%.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Younger than 18 years old or older than 85 years old.\n* Unable to be contacted when out of the hospital.\n* Presence of severe cognitive impairment.\n* Currently on the heart transplant waiting list'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT06422832', 'acronym': 'REMOTI-HF', 'briefTitle': 'Remote Monitoring To Identify Worsening Heart Failure The REMOTI-HF Randomized Clinical Trial', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Unidade Local de Saúde de Coimbra, EPE'}, 'officialTitle': 'Remote Monitoring To Identify Worsening Heart Failure: The REMOTI-HF Randomized Clinical Trial', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'RHF230808'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Interventional group', 'description': 'In this group the respective algorithm will be activated and alerts will be sent according to its design', 'interventionNames': ['Other: HeartLogic or TriageHF Algorithms for implantable devices']}, {'type': 'NO_INTERVENTION', 'label': 'Control Group', 'description': 'The algorithm will not be activated and follow-up will continue as if the patient was not included in the study.'}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'HeartLogic or TriageHF Algorithms for implantable devices', 'type': 'OTHER', 'description': 'Activation of the HeartLogic and TriageHF algorithms for implantable devices and correctly act according to its design', 'armGroupLabels': ['Interventional group']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'centralContacts': [{'name': 'Gonçalo Batista, MD', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'goncalo96batista@gmail.com', 'phone': '963596295', 'phoneExt': '00351'}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Gonçalo Batista, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'ULS Coimbra'}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'NO'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Unidade Local de Saúde de Coimbra, EPE', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Cardiology Resident', 'investigatorFullName': 'Goncalo Terleira Batista', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Unidade Local de Saúde de Coimbra, EPE'}}}}
