Incremental value of C-reactive protein to the MEESSI acute heart failure risk score.

Aims: We hypothesized that the current gold standard for risk stratification of patients with acute heart failure (AHF), the Multiple Estimation of risk based on the Emergency department Spanish Score In patients with AHF (MEESSI-AHF) risk score, can be further improved by adding systemic inflammation as quantified by C-reactive protein (CRP).

Methods And Results: In a prospective multicentre diagnostic study (BASEL V), AHF was centrally adjudicated by two independent cardiologists. The MEESSI-AHF risk score was calculated using an established reduced and recalibrated model containing 12 independent risk factors.

The Evolution of Telehealth in Heart Failure Management: The Role of Large Language Models and HerzMobil as a Potential Use Case.

The burgeoning domain of telehealth has witnessed substantial transformation through the advent of advanced technologies such as Large Language Models (LLMs). This study examines the integration of LLMs in heart failure management, with a focus on HerzMobil as a pioneering telehealth program. The technical underpinnings of LLMs, their current applications in the medical field, and their potential to enhance telehealth services, have been explored.

HerzMobil Tirol PreOp - A Multidisciplinary Telemonitoring Project for Heart Failure Patients Prior to Cardiac Surgery.

Background: Patients with heart failure are at risk of perioperative complications with elective cardiac surgery.

Objectives: Conception of a multidisciplinary telemedicine-assisted optimisation project for high-risk patients prior to elective cardiac surgery.

Methods: Multidisciplinary concept design.
