IMPACT OF REMOTE, WIRELESS PULMONARY ARTERY HEMODYNAMIC MONITORING IN PATIENTS WITH ATRIAL FIBRILLATION AND CHRONIC HEART FAILURE: INSIGHTS FROM THE CHAMPION TRIAL

Conclusions In patients with NYHA class III heart failure implanted with a wireless hemodynamic monitor; those with hAF had worse baseline comorbidities and more frequent HF hospitalizations than those in sinus rhythm. hAF patients randomized to access to pulmonary artery pressures had fewer heart f...
