Heart failure (HF) is a leading cause of hospitalisations in older people. Several strategies, supported by novel technologies, are now available to monitor patients' health from a distance. Although studies have suggested that remote monitoring may reduce HF hospitalisations and mortality, the study of different patient populations, the use of different monitoring technologies and the use of different endpoints limit the generalisability of the results of the clinical trials reported, so far. In this review, we discuss the existing home monitoring modalities, relevant trials and focus on future directions for telemonitoring.
心力衰竭（HF）是老年人住院治疗的主要原因。目前有几种在新技术支持下的策略可用于远程监测患者的健康状况。尽管研究表明远程监测可能会降低心力衰竭的住院率和死亡率，但对不同患者群体的研究、不同监测技术的使用以及不同终点指标的运用限制了目前所报道临床试验结果的普遍性。在本综述中，我们讨论了现有的家庭监测方式、相关试验，并重点关注远程监测的未来发展方向。
