About The Study: Among trial patients discharged after hospitalization for serious infections, remote monitoring did not increase time spent alive at home but reduced it in those 65 years and older. These findings support reevaluating and tailoring remote monitoring after acute care for sepsis and lower respiratory tract infection to support further alignment with patients’ needs and desire for personalized monitoring.
