Use of a novel implantable cardioverter-defibrillator multisensor algorithm for heart failure monitoring in a COVID-19 patient: A case report

Clin Case Rep. 2021 Jan 28;9(3):1178-1182. doi: 10.1002/ccr3.3721. eCollection 2021 Mar.

Abstract

We report the case of a patient implanted with an implantable defibrillator endowed with a multisensor algorithm for heart failure monitoring. Automatic measurement of multiple clinical variables allowed to detect impending heart failure decompensation and showed its ability to facilitate differential diagnosis in the context of the current COVID-19 pandemic.

Keywords: COVID‐19; decompensation; heart failure; prediction; remote monitoring; respiratory disease.
