Biomarkers-based personalized follow-up in chronic heart failure improves patient's outcomes and reduces care associate cost.

Background: Heart failure (HF) is a major and growing medical and economic problem, with high prevalence and incidence rates worldwide. Cardiac Biomarker is emerging as a novel tool for improving management of patients with HF with a reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (HFrEF).

Methods: This is a before and after interventional study, that assesses the impact of a personalized follow-up procedure for HF on patient's outcomes and care associated cost, based on a clinical model of risk stratification and personalized management according to that risk.
