Is the measurement safe?
The measurement is completely safe and in principle identical to measuring blood oxygen saturation. There are no known health or other risks associated with the measurement of the PPG (photoplethysmographic) signal with the Seerlinq oximeter device. Telemedical monitoring is non-invasive, painless and safe. It also allows the physician to remotely monitor your health status in real time.
Can participating in the study affect your current health care?
Your participation in the research does not affect your health care directly. Participating in the study will improve your health care. Monitoring allows you to catch heart failure deterioration in early and therefore prevent hospitalisation, improve your quality of life and extend your life expectancy.
