Heart failure is a serious and common disease. HF is marked by a high rate of preventable hospitalizations through proper care. As such, it is a key target for telemedicine programs. However, currently published data are inconclusive. Investigators propose a multicenter randomized study of innovative telemedicine involving the usual patient monitoring daily weight monitoring, clinical signs and in one of three groups in our study of BNP testing in the patient's home all associated with a regular education reinforcement. The objective is to identify early cardiac decompensation to allow to treat ambulatory and thus prevent the occurrence of more serious events such as death or rehospitalization.
