Home Telemonitoring In Patients After Myocardial Infarction

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate patients undergoing cardiac catheterization. The hypothesis is that patients who go home with 12 lead ECG home telemonitoring will have decreased general and cardiac ED presentation and hospital readmission rates without an increase in major adverse cardiac events and at a lower health care utilization cost compared to patients with standard therapy alone.
