Patient Care Depends on Connectivity
The HRS/EHRA/APHRS/LAHRS 2023 Expert Consensus Statement on the Practical Management of the Remote Device Clinic was the first update in seven years to provide guidelines to cardiac device clinics on how to manage the remote monitoring process to optimize clinical efficacy, staff efficiency, and financial success.
Vector Remote Care sat down with two of the authors, Dr. Suneet Mittal (Director, Electrophysiology at The Valley Hospital) and Dr. Janet Han (Cardiac Electrophysiologist, Director of Remote Monitoring Program at VA, Los Angeles) to discuss the revised consensus statement. Topics included: current state of remote monitoring, patient connectivity, data deluge, financial considerations, and the future of device management.
Watch the series below to hear directly from two of the consensus statement authors on what the key takeaways are from the 2023 consensus statement and how clinics can implement the guidelines.
Modern Guidelines for the Modern Cardiac Clinic
This first video discusses the challenges cardiac device clinics face in their remote monitoring programs and what drove the need for the first updated consensus statement on cardiac remote monitoring in seven years.
Patient Care Depends on Connectivity
One of the primary focuses of the 2023 consensus statement is the need to increase patient connectivity to ensure timely and accurate care for cardiac device patients. Hear Dr. Suneet Mittal, Dr. Janet Han, and Kevin Hoffman discuss how to implement a patient engagement strategy.
Cardiac Remote Monitoring is a Team-Based Sport
Staffing shortages and data deluge continue to impact cardiac device clinics nationwide. Drs. Janet Han and Suneet Mittal describe the 2023 guidelines, which give specific recommendations for staffing ratios and training to curtail those challenges.
Prioritize the Pertinent
