Presentation Slides

Pdf Summary

This document discusses the experience and lessons learned from two large device clinics in managing a Dedicated Heart Failure workflow for remote cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) data. The clinics share their approaches in managing this complex patient population, including the use of technology and collaboration between modalities and specialties. <br /><br />The first clinic, Bon Secours Mercy Health, implemented the Paceart software in 2021 and later integrated with Murj in 2023. The clinic uses a self-governed approach with a dedicated device clinic managing EP and HF transmissions. They have enrolled 1235 HF patients within their 6000 patient EP clinic and utilize both remote and in-office care for CRM, ICM, and Heart Failure. Initially, the clinic had a tedious and manual workflow but improved efficiency with the implementation of Murj. They achieved full EMR integration and experienced increased productivity and staff satisfaction.<br /><br />The second clinic, Allegheny Health Network, implemented Murj software in 2023. The clinic manages HF patients independent of their EP clinic and utilizes both remote and in-office care for CRM and ICM. They also experienced workflow evolution and learned valuable lessons, including the importance of collaboration with software support and device industry representatives.<br /><br />Both clinics saw positive outcomes with the implementation of dedicated Heart Failure workflows and emphasized the need for flexibility, vision, and collaboration. They highlighted the role of technology, integrations, and manufacturer offerings in facilitating data management and improving patient care. Lessons learned include the importance of setting clinic standards, leveraging analytics, and cultivating patient engagement.<br /><br />The document concludes with information on accessing the webinar recording and slides, as well as additional resources for those interested in exploring dedicated Heart Failure management solutions, such as contacting Murj or local device representatives.
