Popis: The position paper of the working group 33/Telemonitoring in the German Society for Cardiology e. V. (DGK) discusses the importance of digital solutions in the German health care system and highlights the application possibilities and potentials of telemonitoring in the treatment of patients with cardiac diseases. In addition to telemonitoring of acute ischaemic diseases, acute coronary syndrome and acute cardiac arrhythmias, telemonitoring of chronic cardiac diseases is discussed. Chronic diseases, such as chronic heart failure, are age-associated and present society with the great challenge of providing high-quality, yet cost-efficient care to an increasing number of patients in the future. Telemonitoring offers an opportunity to meet this challenge. However, the introduction of telemonitoring and the associated changes for patients, doctors and other service providers must be accompanied by measures to ensure the acceptance of telemonitoring and the secure handling of sensitive data as well as the quality of telemonitoring services.
