Structured Telephone / Remote Outpatient Monitoring

During their hospitalization, patients will receive education on their condition and will be taught to use a wireless remote monitoring device that they will use from home on a daily basis for six months following hospital discharge. Patients will receive structured telephone phone calls from a centralized call center nurse at least once a week for the first month post-discharge, and monthly for the remainder of the six month study period. Patients may receive additional calls depending upon the information gathered during the scheduled call center phone calls and/or their health status as ascertained by the data (weight, heart rate, blood pressure, answers to general health and heart failure-related questions) transmitted daily by the wireless remote monitoring device.
