Therapeutic Education Strategy for Patients With Acute Heart Failure

Impact of an Intensive Therapeutic Education on Occurrence of Clinical Events in Patients With Acute Heart Failure: EduStra-HF Study

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 3 Apr 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The EduStra-HF study will examine the impact of an intensive therapeutic education on patients discharged from hospital after an episode of acute heart failure (HF). Patients will be randomized into two groups: one will receive "usual care" monitoring and one will receive a specific educational monitoring programme for 1 year. All patients will meet with a specialized therapeutic education nurse before discharge. The effect of the intensive education on HF rehospitalization and quality of life will be examined.
