Narrative objectives1

This study aims to evaluate usage patterns of the app following its release by analysing life log data (e.g. daily blood pressure, pulse and weight) and heart failure symptom data obtained from patients with chronic heart failure who have installed and used the app. The app is being released on a limited basis. The aim is to use the feedback and evaluations received to improve the programming, user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) of the app in future versions.
