Abstract
Remote patient monitoring (RPM) is rapidly gaining popularity for the management of heart failure (HF) patients. We present a case involving a 63-year-old male with ischemic cardiomyopathy, in which an RPM application on a mobile phone successfully identified slow ventricular tachycardia (VT). Patient's implanted defibrillator failed to detect the VT event due to the heart rate falling below its VT detection threshold. The rapid detection of VT by the RPM system triggered an immediate response from the HF team. This case underlines the multiple roles that RPM can take in identifying major adverse events in HF patients.
