“This should be welcome news for patient care teams because a greater prediction rate with fewer false alerts translates into more effective and efficient care,” said Corey Centen, founder, president, and chief technical officer at Bodyport. “What’s more, use of the Cardiac Scale and the Congestion Index is a seamless transition for clinicians and patients because it enhances, rather than replaces, the existing pathways built around weight monitoring. The lower alert rate should lead to workflow efficiencies because care teams—who are often feeling overly burdened by the large number of notifications and data flowing in—will spend less time responding to false alerts.”
