简要总结
The Alexa+ Study will compare the use of the Amazon Echo Dot with Alexa voice technology in patients with chronic heart failure to those receiving standard of care heart failure management on changes in health and patient-centered outcomes.
详细描述
Integrating data from virtual voice activated assistants (Amazon Echo Dot with Alexa voice technology), with the rich medical history available in Electronic Health Records (EHR) will allow a truly customized, interactive, and automated personal healthcare assistant. This technology will be validated in patients who have chronic heart failure (HF). Half of the study patients will receive an Amazon Echo Dot (Alexa) enhanced with a HF Care custom Alexa Skill that is patient-specific, or Alexa+. Data on patient interactions with the device will be followed for three months. The control groups will receive standard of care (SOC) HF management. Both study and control groups will receive regular follow up from the HF nurse and data from all hospital or clinic visits will be captured from the EHR.
