Dr. Nir Uriel: Novel Remote Monitoring Device May Detect Heart Failure Events Earlier

Nir Uriel, M.D., director of Advanced Heart Failure and Cardiac Transplantation at NewYork-Presbyterian and Columbia, is leading an early feasibility study for a new device that may detect heart failure events earlier than the current standard of care, helping patients avoid hospitalization. The new technology works by monitoring blood volume, as opposed to blood pressure, and tracks changes in inferior vena cava size.
