Home/News Feed/FDA approves CardioGuide HF App, letting heart failure patients track lung artery pressure on smartphones. Abbott received FDA approval for updates to its CardioMEMS HF System, enabling U.S. heart failure patients to view pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) readings on the new CardioGuide HF App. This app helps patients monitor their condition and receive personalized medication updates, allowing earlier intervention before symptoms worsen. The system, proven to reduce hospitalizations and mortality, now includes a Dynamic Treatment Plan feature that sends medication adjustments directly to patients. Abbott plans to launch these features later this year, enhancing patient engagement and care management between doctor visits.
