The HABIT clinical study is being performed to determine the benefit and optimal frequency for at home testing of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) for heart failure patients following hospitalization from decompensation. Subjects will be enrolled following hospitalization for decompensated heart failure. Enrolled subjects will be trained on the use of the Triage Touch meter for fingerstick BNP assessment; these subjects will then test their BNP levels daily using the Triage Touch product for approximately 60 days.
