Connectivity and Remote Care for Heart Failure Management

With remote monitoring, you can gain critical information about your patient's cardiac health and heart failure progression. This connection with your patients allows you to intervene early and provide your patients with the personalized care they deserve. Learn how our connectivity and remote care devices can lead to better heart failure management.

CardioMEMS HF System and the Merlin.net Patient Care Network (PCN)

The CardioMEMS™ HF System is a pulmonary artery (PA) pressure monitoring system clinically proven to aid physicians in preventing worsening heart failure,1 lowering mortality rates2 and improving quality of life3,4 — even for HFpEF patients.5 The CardioMEMS HF System sends patient data to the Merlin.net™ Patient Care Network (PCN), so healthcare professionals have access to patients’ data transmissions via a secure website. Merlin.net PCN presents PA pressure data as actionable information to guide earlier, more appropriate intervention for each patient.
