Background: Remote patient monitoring (RPM) clinical trials have reported mixed results in improving outcomes for patients with chronic heart failure (HF). The impact of clinical workflows that could impact RPM effectiveness is often overlooked. We sought to characterize workflows and response protocols that could impact outcomes in studies of non-invasive RPM in HF.

Secondary analysis of randomized clinical trials and limited observational cohort analyses have suggested that women may be more likely than men to experience statin-associated DM. No analyses of real-world drug safety data addressing this question have been published.

Many of these initiatives focus solely on research insights, leading to limited direct benefit to patients. We describe the biobank at the Colorado Center for Personalized Medicine (CCPM Biobank) that was jointly developed by the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus and UCHealth to serve as a unique, dual-purpose research and clinical resource accelerating personalized medicine.
