Predicting hospitalization due to worsening heart failure using daily weight measurement: analysis of the Trans‐European Network‐Home‐Care Management System (TEN‐HMS) study

We sought to test the utility of weight gain algorithms to predict episodes of worsening heart failure (WHF) using home‐telemonitoring data collected as part of the TEN‐HMS study.
