Comparison of partners-heart failure algorithm vs care alert in remote heart failure management

Table 3 Diagnostic accuracy of partners-heart failure and care alert in determining active clinical actions

	Active clinical actions (2-3)	Non-active/no clinical actions (0-1)	Total transmissions
Positive partners-HF transmissions	193	35	228
Negative partners-HF transmissions	6	431	437
Positive care alert transmissions	22	30	52
Negative care alert transmissions	177	436	613
Overall transmissions followed by an action	199	466	665
