Comparison Between a Robotic Tele-echo-cardiography Technique and a Standard Echocardiography in the Management of Heart Failure in the Guadeloupe Archipelago Between the University Hospital of Guadeloupe and the Marie-Galante Hospital

Sponsor

Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de la Guadeloupe

Enrollment

50 participants

Start Date

Nov 30, 2025

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Heart Failure Remote Consultation, Teleconsultation Echocardiography, Doppler

Summary

The TERdeblue-S study is a feasibility study of robotic remote echocardiography, not only in terms of technology but also in terms of its integration into a telemedicine system to improve access to the heart failure management system in the Guadeloupe archipelago. The main objective of this study is to study the agreement of the measurement of the left ventricular ejection fraction (FejVG) between in situ echocardiography (EIS) and two-dimensional remote echocardiography (TER) (distance and volumes).

Clinical suspicion of heart disease and/or chronic heart failure with stability of at least one week.
Family history of heart disease and/or sudden death

Exclusion Criteria3

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TESTin situ echocardiography (EIS)

In situ echocardiography (EIS) will be performed by the cardiologist present in Marie-Galante Hospital.

DIAGNOSTIC_TESTtwo-dimensional remote echocardiography (TER)

Remote echocardiography is performed by a cardiologist from a private practice in Guadeloupe, with a research nurse present at the patient's side at Marie-Galante Hospital.
