Study Summary

The goal of this pilot study to evaluate the effect of the MedSentry system, a multi-faceted medication adherence device and reminder system, on medication adherence and clinical outcomes in heart-failure (HF) patients. We will also evaluate the usability and satisfaction derived from using this system. We hypothesize that: 1. The use of the MedSentry system will improve medication adherence in patients with a discharge diagnosis of HF. 2. The improvement in adherence correlates with fewer hospitalizations and emergency department (ED) visits. 3. The improvement in adherence correlates with better health-related quality of life.

Primary Outcome

Subject reported medication adherence. The Medical Outcomes Study (MOS) "Adhere" medication adherence measure consists of a single question that asks participants "How often did you take your medications as prescribed during the past 4 weeks?" Responses are recoded into a dichotomous measure of nonadherent (none, a little, some of the time) and adherent (most, all of the time).
