Heart failure is a chronic disease, which requires complex and long medication. Patients with heart failure are at high risk of readmission and prolong of stay in hospital. This review aimed to analysis the effect of technological management on readmission among patients with heart failure. We conducted systematic review in PubMed, ProQuest, ScienceDirect, and EBSCO databases. The search terms were “Management Technology”, “Heart Failures”, and “Readmission”. Only published articles within last 10 years and English language were analysed using content analysis. We identified three articles met the criteria and proceeded for analysis. Patients with heart failure are in a higher risk of hospital readmission. To reduce the risk of hospital readmission, several technological approaches could be conducted, such as interactive voice response system with daily self-management and clinical monitoring, combination of translational care phone call and telemonitoring, and home telemonitoring. Among the three articles, an interactive voice response system (IVRS) with daily self-management and clinical monitoring was recommended compared to other methods of 30-180 days of re-entry in heart failure patients. The core of the technological management was to enable patients in self-management on their diseases. Using a technology can assist patients with failure to reduce the admission rate and encourage them to do self-monitoring on their health states |
