Investigating factors affecting participation in heart failure care interventions

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study focuses on patients with heart failure who have recently been hospitalized. It evaluates two interventions aimed at improving care coordination during the transition from hospital to home: the PRADO program, which provides outpatient medical and nursing follow-up, and a telemedicine initiative for remote monitoring. The study aims to understand the factors influencing patient participation in these interventions and their potential impact on reducing rehospitalizations and mortality rates. By analyzing patient experiences and outcomes, the research seeks to enhance the effectiveness of heart failure management.
