BOT-IMPROVE-HF is a two-center, parallel group study designed to evaluate the efficacy of up-titration of heart failure treatment using digital remote monitoring after hospitalization due to heart failure decompensation. Patient will be randomized before discharge using a simple computer generated sequence to either remote monitoring or usual care group. Patients' condition in the "remote monitoring" arm will be assessed by mini-program based on a personal messenger and laboratory rests results will be asked by phone call. If these measures show safety and tolerability of the doses of the drugs, they will be increased to target or maximally tolerated doses. The follow-up period will be 6 months - 24 weeks. Patients of the usual care group will be followed by their general practitioner and/or cardiologist. All patients will be contacted after 6 months to assess outcomes.

The effectiveness of treatment in patients with chronic heart failure depends on the achievement of target doses of guideline-directed medical therapy. According to the STRONG-HF study, intensive titration for 6 months leads the decrease of hospitalization and mortality. But modern studies shows that only 17% of patients take the four drugs. And the percentage of achievement the target doses is probably even lower. A promising way to solve the problem is remote monitoring. And the investigator developed a program for this. This is a mini-program based on a personal messenger, which is controlled by text commands in a chat on the "question-answer" principle. It allows us to automate data collection and obtain information about the patient's well-being and his vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, weight) related to heart failure. The pilot trial showed a good program adherence and a significant improvement in quality of life over a three-month period in the remote observation group. BOT-IMPROVE-HF is a multicenter, randomized, parallel group study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of up-titration of heart failure medical therapy including beta-blockers; angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi), angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) or angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor (ARNi); and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRAs) using digital remote monitoring. Patients should be admitted for decompensation of chronic heart failure including clinical signs of congestion and elevated circulating N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), Also they should not get optimal doses of oral heart failure (HF) therapies before discharge. Hemodynamically stable patients will be randomized to either remote monitoring or usual care group. In the first group, repeated assessments of clinical signs and symptoms of heart failure will be collected by a chatbot. Routine clinical laboratory measures including potassium, sodium, and creatinine as well as NT-proBNP will be performed by patients and collected by the chatbot or phone. It will allow us to titrate or continue oral HF therapies. The usual care group will be followed by their general practitioner and/or cardiologist. Patients will be contacted after 6 months to assess outcomes.
