Abstract
In our contemporary era, characterized by remarkable advances in health care innovation, remote monitoring (RM) of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs), is an example of the powerful translational impact of advances in digital
technology into patient care. RM of CIEDs has transformed the care of patients with pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) in the past 2 decades, offering a range of potential benefits to patients and clinicians including reduced clinical workload,1,2 reduced times to detection of clinical events,2,3 improved device outcomes,4 and cost reductions.5 Recent 2023 guidelines have recommended that RM is part of the standard of care in CIED patients (Class 1, Level of Evidence: A).6
