Introducción: Una estrategia que ha mostrado ser efectiva para promover el autocuidado en los pacientes con falla cardiaca es la formación de diadas y grupos que brinden apoyo de pares para favorecer el logro de metas individuales.Objetivo general: Determinar el efecto de un programa de paciente experto en falla cardiaca en los conocimientos relacionados con la adherencia al tratamiento y en la satisfacción. Método: Se realizó un estudio piloto descriptivo de corte transversal en pacientes con diagnósticos de falla cardiaca en una institución de cuarto nivel. El tamaño de la muestra correspondió a toda la población con los criterios de restricción (N: 20 sujetos). Se implementó un programa de paciente experto durante 6 meses y se midieron los desenlaces de nivel de conocimientos y satisfacción. Para la recolección de la información se utilizó un test de conocimientos sobre adherencia al tratamiento y una encuesta de satisfacción. La información se procesó a través del programa IBM SPSS Statistics 23.0, y se realizó un análisis descriptivo con distribución de frecuencias absolutas y relativas. Resultados: Más del 95% de los pacientes mostró mejoría significativa en el nivel de conocimientos y el 85% refirió el nivel de satisfacción global más alto (muy satisfechos), reflejado en la dimensión de fidelización y efectividad. Conclusiones: El programa del paciente experto en insuficiencia cardiaca se constituye en una intervención costo-efectiva que proporciona capacidades para ayudar a otros pacientes a adquirir autoconfianza y habilidades en el manejo de su condición de salud.  Introduction: One of the strategies that has shown improvement in self-care for patients with heart failure is the formation of dyads and groups to provide peer support and achieve individual goals.

Congestive heart failure (CHF) presents, besides the magnitude of epidemiological data, relevant characteristics, including frequent hospitalizations caused by severe signs and symptoms, which should be studied to reduce the negative impact of the disease on the public health system. With the advent of several clinical trials in the area of CHF, the treatment has become more complex, with the need of a more organized structure to assist these patients. Education is considered essential to reduce morbidity and mortality. The setting, to begin or to continue the educational process, can be a hospital (hospitalization), outpatient clinic, home, a day-hospital or yet, a combination of these. The main researches in this area recognize and motivate an investigation of other paths to get better results in the pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments. In this study we review recent data, approaching several educational settings in the management of patients with CHF.

Exercise training (ET) is now recommended as an important component of a comprehensive approach to patients with heart failure (HF). Despite the existence of proven benefits of ET, many HF patients remain physically inactive. Introducing telerehabilitation (TR) may eliminate most of the factors that result in the currently low number of patients undergoing outpatient-based rehabilitation programmes and thus increase the percentage of those who will undergo cardiac rehabilitation. Despite the fact that TR is highly applicable and effective, there are few papers dedicated to the study of TR in HF patients. Until recently, only a couple of home rehabilitation-monitoring models have been presented, from the simplest, i.e. heart rate monitoring and transtelephonic electrocardiographic monitoring, through to the more advanced tele-electocardiogram (tele-ECG) monitoring (via a remote device) and realtime electrocardiographic and voice transtelephonic monitoring. It seems the last two are the most useful and reliable. Based on published studies, TR in HF patients could be equally effective as and provide similar improvements in health-related quality of life to standard outpatient cardiac rehabilitation. In addition, adherence to cardiac rehabilitation seems to be better during TR. Due to disease-related limitations, TR seems to be a viable alternative for comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation in HF patients. Further studies are needed to confirm the utility of this type of rehabilitation in routine clinical practice, including its cost-effectiveness. Because of the diversity of technological systems, it is necessary to create a platform to ensure compatibility between the devices used in telemedicine.

The clinical history aims to elicit the symptoms that are commonly experienced by patients with heart failure such as dyspnoea, paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnoea, orthopnoea, and fatigue. The history may also provide clues as to the aetiology of heart failure and symptoms that suggest alternative diagnoses. Similarly, signs that are elicited on clinical examination are used to support the diagnosis of heart failure. In addition, they can be used to determine prognosis and assess response to treatment or the need for more intensive treatment. Common signs such as peripheral oedema, jugular venous distension, and pulmonary crackles are less specific for the diagnosis of heart failure than others such as a third heart sound. The presence of some clinical signs may help determine the aetiology of heart failure and indicate other potential diagnoses that may present like heart failure but require very different treatment. While signs and symptoms are used in conjunction with imaging evidence and raised natriuretic peptides to make the diagnosis of heart failure, the electrocardiogram (ECG) still plays a central role. The ECG can be used to determine underlying aetiology (such as evidence of prior myocardial infarction) and guide therapeutic decision-making such as the need for cardiac resynchronization therapy in those with bundle branch block. Information on symptoms, signs, and investigations such as the ECG need to be integrated to ensure the accurate diagnosis and optimal treatment of patients with heart failure.

Abstract Background Estimated plasma volume (ePV) can be calculated from haematocrit and body weight, and has been shown to correlate with PV measured using 125Iodine labelled human serum albumin. Comparing a patient's ePV to ideal PV (iPV), an estimate of a patient's relative congestion, called PV status (PVS), is possible. Higher PVS is associated with increased mortality in patients with heart failure (HF), and has been proposed as a simple, cheap, and non-invasive way of assessing congestion. Purpose Whether PVS is associated with invasively measured markers of congestion is unknown. We calculated PVS in patients with HF who had right heart catheterisation (RHC), and assessed any correlation between PVS and invasive measures of congestion. Methods We calculated PVS in consecutive patients who had RHC performed as part of transplant assessment. iPV was calculated as: iPV = c × weight (kg) where c=39 in males and c=40 in females. ePV was calculated using subjects' haematocrit and weight as follows: ePV = (1 − haematocrit) × [a + (b × weight in kg)], where haematocrit is a fraction, a=1530 in males and a=864 in females, and b=41 in males and b=47.9 in females. PVS was calculated as: PVS = PVS = (ePV − iPV) /iPV × 100%. Correlation between PVS and invasive wedge pressure, mean right atrial (RA) pressure, and NTproBNP were made using Pearson correlation. Results PV indices and RHC data were available for 61 patients, 43 (71%) were male. Median age was 55 [IQR 48, 58] years. 20 (33%), 24 (39%), and 15 (25%) were NYHA association class II, III, and IV respectively. The median NTproBNP was 1390 [IQR 512, 3612] pg/ml and median ejection fraction was 29 [IQR 20, 35] %. The median PVS was −5.9% (IQR −12.5, −1.6]. Median wedge and mean-RA pressures were 14 [7, 21] and 4 [1, 8] mmHg, respectively. Correlation between mean RA pressure and PVS is shown in the figure. There was no correlation between PVS and mean RA pressure (r=0.12, p=0.34) or wedge pressure (r=0.01, p=0.92). There was a weak correlation between NTproBNP and PVS (r=0.31, p=0.01) Correlation mean RA pressure and PVS Conclusion PVS did not correlate with the invasive measures of congestion, mean RA and wedge pressure, but was weakly correlated with NTproBNP. Although there were limited number of patients in this study, we question the conclusion that PVS is a marker of congestion, and whether it can be used clinically for this purpose.

Heart failure is a clinical syndrome that affects >6.5 million Americans, with an estimated 550 000 new cases diagnosed each year. The complexity of heart failure management is compounded by the number of patients who experience adverse downstream effects of the social determinants of health (SDOH). These patients are less able to access care and more likely to experience poor heart failure outcomes over time. Many patients face additional challenges associated with the cost of complex, chronic illness management and must make difficult decisions about their own health, particularly when the costs of medications and healthcare appointments are at odds with basic food and housing needs. This scientific statement summarizes the SDOH and the current state of knowledge important to understanding their impact on patients with heart failure. Specifically, this document includes a definition of SDOH, provider competencies, and SDOH assessment tools and addresses the following questions: (1) What models or frameworks guide healthcare providers to address SDOH? (2) What are the SDOH affecting the delivery of care and the interventions addressing them that affect the care and outcomes of patients with heart failure? (3) What are the opportunities for healthcare providers to address the SDOH affecting the care of patients with heart failure? We also include a case study ( Data Supplement ) that highlights an interprofessional team effort to address and mitigate the effects of SDOH in an underserved patient with heart failure.

Objectives: to determine the causes of ineffective observation and poor prognosis in patients undergoing ADHF, in real clinical practice and to consider the basics of the formation of specialized medical care for patients with heart failure (HF).Materials and methods: the study was conducted based on the City Center for the treatment of heart failure (center HF), N. Novgorod. The study consistently included 942 patients with heart failure (HF) at the age of 18 years and older who underwent ADHF and received inpatient treatment in center HF between March 4, 2016 and March 3, 2017. Based on the decisions of patients to continue outpatient monitoring in center HF, two groups of patients were distinguished: patients who continued to be monitored in center HF (group I, n = 510) and patients who continued to be monitored in outpatient clinics at the place of residence (group II, n = 432). The assessment of adherence to treatment, overall mortality, survival and re-admission to a depth of two years of observation was carried out. Statistical data processing was performed using Statistica 7.0 for Windows and the software package R.Results: all patients in the study groups had high comorbidity. Group 2 patients turned out to be statistically significantly older, more often had III functional class (FC) HF, lower the baseline test score of 6-minute walk, and higher the baseline clinical assessment scale. After 2 years of follow-up in group II, there was a significant deterioration in adherence to basic therapy of HF compared with group I. According to the results of multifactorial proportional risk Cox models, it was shown that observation of patients in the group 1 is an independent factor increasing the risk of overall mortality by 2.8 times by the end of the second year of observation. Survival after two years of follow-up was: in group I — 89.8 %, and in group II — 70.1 % of patients (OR = 0.3, 95 % CI 0.2 – 0.4; p1/2 < 0.001). After two years of follow-up, the proportion of re-hospitalized patients in group II was greater (78.0 % of patients) versus group 1 (50.6 % of patients, OR = 3.5, 95 % CI 2.6 – 4.6; p1/2 <0.001). The independent risk of re-hospitalization according to multinominal logit regression was 3.4 times higher in group II and 2.4 times for III – IV FC HF. Conclusions: the inclusion of patients with HF in the system of specialized medical care improves adherence to treatment, prognosis of life and reduces the risk of repeated hospitalizations. Patients of an older age and with an initially greater clinical severity refused specialized supervision in center HF.

The article presents the first experience of analyzing the treatment quality of hospitalized patients with heart failure based on electronic health records (EHR). We analyzed EHR of patients hospitalized in three large hospitals in Kirov. The results of the analysis indicated insufficient detailed information in the EHR, which complicates analyzing the accuracy of diagnosis and therapy quality. In particular, attention is drawn to the disproportionate number of patients with heart failure with reduced and preserved ejection fractionю This, apparently, is due to the low prevalence of assessing brain natriuretic peptides and conducting Doppler echocardiography. A separate part of the analysis is devoted to assessing the therapy quality in patients with concomitant diabetes. Despite the study limitations, the presented results can be useful for improving the quality of EHR filling for performing further observational clinical trials.
