Implication

Active remote monitoring enhances treatment adherence in cardiac surgical patients, suggesting long-term benefits.

Key Points

This research aims to evaluate how remote monitoring affects treatment adherence in cardiac surgical patients.
Enrolled fifty patients in a remote monitoring program.
Followed patients for a median of 29 months.
Administered Morisky-Green and other questionnaires at baseline and one year post-program.
Morisky-Green scores increased significantly from a median of 2 to 4, p<0.001.
Quality of life improved and levels of anxiety and depression decreased over time.
Loneliness expression among patients also decreased.

Shvartz et al. (2025) studied Cardiac Surgical Patients (n=50). Active Remote Monitoring Program vs. Standard care (no remote monitoring) was evaluated on Adherence to treatment as measured by the Morisky-Green questionnaire (p=<0.001). Participation in an active remote monitoring program significantly improved treatment adherence in cardiac surgical patients one year after the program ended.
