Pilot and Feasibility Study of a MAWDS (Medications, Activity, Weight, Diet and Symptoms) Heart Failure Mobile Platform

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Heart Failure

In brief

The purpose of this study is to create a smartphone app that delivers the educational content of the current Intermountain MAWDS\* program and allows patients to enter and track their MAWDS data within the app; and to determine if a broad-scale project can be conducted within the limits of currently available technology. Information from this study will be used to design a larger study that is powered to assess the association between data obtained via a MAWDS app and heart failure outcomes.
