Chat program for social isolation in older women with heart failure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a chat-based program (like a chatbot) that helps older women with heart failure feel less socially isolated (social frailty) and improve their well-being. You would interact with the chatbot and fill out questionnaires to see if it makes a difference.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 65 years of age or older.
- You have heart failure with a weak pumping function (ejection fraction below 40%).
