Summary
The purpose of this study is to characterize the feasibility and impact of a diagnostic tool that may help clinicians identify when patients are at higher risk of visiting the hospital for a heart failure event. The study will use a non-experimental device that is inserted just under the skin of the chest, which continuously monitors the heart rhythm in combination with an experimental web-based heart failure risk status. Patients with atrial fibrillation and heart failure will be evaluated to collect data about the potential of this risk status to help improve patient outcome.
