Monitoring Heart Failure (CHF)

Learn How DailyDoctor Can Give You Peace of Mind

Get Started

Heart failure, also referred to as congestive heart failure (CHF), is what happens when your heart isn't pumping blood in and out like it should. This can cause fluid to build up in your lungs, which makes it hard to breathe and can affect your daily life.

By 2030, it's expected that the number of Americans suffering from heart failure will rise 46%1

More About Congestive Heart Failure

CHF can be brought on by complications from other conditions such as high blood pressure, coronary artery disease, and diabetes.

Symptoms include:

  • Shortness of breath
  • Swelling in the legs and arms
  • Weight gain
  • Rapid heartbeat
  • And others

DailyDoctor check-ins can help catch a change in your condition earlier, so you can get treatment from the comfort of home before needing a trip to the hospital.

  • Each morning, you'll weigh yourself, take your blood pressure, and use the pulse-oximeter to measure your blood oxygen level (SpO2) and heart rate. Your information is then wirelessly transmitted to us.

  • You'll rate your symptoms on a scale of zero to four. You can do this by web, text (SMS), or phone.

  • A DailyDoctor physician will review your information and reach out the same day if they need to adjust your treatments or recommend additional medical care.
