Randomized controlled trial of comprehensive nursing intervention on readmission, mortality and quality of life among Egyptian heart failure patients: A 12 month follow up study

Abstract:

Background: Despite major advances in the treatment options for heart failure (HF) patients, morbidity and mortality remain high. Frequent re-admissions are distressful for patients and are associated with large costs for society. Improved self-care behaviour is a goal in educational programmes for patients with HF. The primary outcome measure of this study was to determine the effect of pre-discharge educationa… Show more

“…There are no landmark studies to support the argument for CDSMPs as an independent predictor for improved major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) [3-10, 20, 46-48). There is a spectrum of published data drawn from quantitative and qualitative studies, including descriptive, observational, and randomized controlled trials, which have covered topics that include: clinical outcomes and QOL [ 49 - 69 ]; strategies to deliver [ 70 - 88 ], promote [ 89 - 105 ], predict [ 106 - 124 ], and support carers [ 125 - 136 ]; programs in Non-western cultures, non-English languages, [ 137 - 149 ]; education/literacy gaps [ 150 - 168 ]; age [ 50 , 58 , 150 ]; gender [ 152 ]; comorbid conditions [ 33 , 169 , 170 ]; depression [ 170 - 172 ], and; remoteness and Indigenous background [ 2 , 173 - 181 ]. These studies point to a wide range of benefits.…”

“…The HART study, which randomized 902 patients, identified no benefits of their self-management intervention compared to the control group [ 55 , 59 ]. Nonetheless, there is evidence linking increased self-care behaviors with better composite endpoints of hospitalization or death [ 50 , 51 , 53 , 54 , 56 - 58 , 62 , 108 , 158 , 159 ]. Surrogates for poor self-care, such as impaired cognition or lower literacy, are concomitantly associated with poorer outcomes [ 154 , 160 ].…”
