Reduction in 90 day readmission rates utilizing ambulatory pulmonary pressure monitoring.
Article in ESC heart failure, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
aimsIn the CHAMPION (CardioMEMS Heart Sensor Allows Monitoring of Pressure to Improve Outcomes in New York Heart Association Functional Class III Heart Failure Patients) trial, heart failure hospitalization (HFH) rates were lower in patients with ambulatory pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) monitoring guidance. We investigated the effect of ambulatory haemodynamic monitoring on 90 day readmission rates after HFH. METHODS AND
resultsWe retrospectively analysed patients across the Advocate Aurora Health hospital network who had undergone PAP sensor implantation between 1 October 2015 and 31 October 2019. Patients with a ventricular assist device (VAD) or transplant prior to implantation were excluded. Rates of total HFH and 30 and 90 day all-cause readmission up to 12 months after implantation were collected, while censoring for an endpoint of heart transplantation, VAD, or death. Event rates were compared using Poisson regression. Of 459 patients included, there were 404 HFHs before and 179 after implantation. Compared with pre-implantation, 30 day all-cause readmission [incidence rate ratio (IRR): 0.55 (0.39-0.77), P = 0.0006] and 90 day all cause readmission rates were lower post-implantation [IRR: 0.45 (0.35-0.58), P < 0.0001]. The effect of PAP sensor implantation on 90 day all-cause readmission incidence rates was consistent across multiple subgroups.
conclusionsAcross a large hospital network, ambulatory haemodynamic monitoring was associated with lower HFH rates, as well as 30 and 90 day all-cause readmission rates. This supports the utility of ambulatory PAP monitoring to improve HF management in the era of value-based medicine.
