	Monitored Group	Usual‐Care Group	P Value
NYHA class improvement	−0.74 ± 0.67	−0.13 ± 0.34	<0.00011
Patients with no NYHA improvement, %	38.2	87.5
Patients with NYHA class improvement, %	61.8	12.5
Patients with improvement of 1 class	50.0	12.5
Patients with improvement of 2 classes	11.8	0.0
HFH events, n	1	10
Patients with a HFH, n (%)	1 (2.9)	6 (18.8)
Rate of HFHs/patient‐year	0.119	1.268	IRR: 0.094, 95% CI: 0.002‐0.662, P = 0.00492

Abbreviations: CI, confidence interval; HF, heart failure; HFH, heart failure hospitalization; IRR, incidence rate ratio; NYHA, New York Heart Association; PAP, pulmonary artery pressure; QoL, quality of life.
