Overview

Watch the video to learn how to streamline your care of heart failure patients with TriageHF™ technology.



Today, there is not an automated mechanism to identify which implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD)/cardiac resynchronization therapy-defibrillator (CRT-D) patients are at the highest risk of heart failure decompensation.

TriageHF™ technology automates patient triage for clinicians to identify which patients are at the highest risk of heart failure decompensation.



Identify high-risk heart failure patients.

TriageHF™ technology assesses a patient’s risk of heart failure: high, medium, or low.

Patient’s risk level is generated by assessing1:

  • OptiVol™ 2.0 fluid status monitoring
  • Patient activity
  • AT/AF burden
  • Ventricular rate during AT/AF
  • Percent of ventricular pacing
  • Shocks
  • Treated VT/VF
  • Night ventricular rate
  • Heart rate variability

Risk score

Risk of a HF hospitalization in the next 30 days2:

  • High Hazard ratio 10 times
  • Medium Hazard ratio 2.1 times
  • Low Negative predicted value 99.4%


Streamlined workflow

Current workflows require a manual approach to identify high-risk patients. TriageHF™ technology offers a simplified and automated tool to easily identify patients at the highest risk of heart failure decompensation.
