A 59-year-old male was admitted with acute on chronic decompensated heart failure. Review of his CardioMEMS (Abbott Laboratories, Atlanta, Georgia) device and HeartLogic (Boston Scientific, Marlborough, Massachusetts) index were helpful in guiding management of his volume status. This paper highlights the correlation between 2 monitoring systems which could be used to predict heart failure events. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.), Graphical abstract
