Thorough consideration of user experiences and the weighing of advantages and disadvantages are essential when implementing new technology in clinical practice. This article describes a primary care nurse's experience using two technologies to monitor lung congestion in six patient cases: a remote dielectric sensing device for non-invasive lung fluid measurement and a portable handheld ultrasound device. Both can support decision-making when assessing lung congestion in heart failure patients. However, technical difficulties and interpretational complexities are inherent in their use. Balancing these advantages and disadvantages and finding effective strategies to address challenges is crucial for successful clinical implementation.
