Remote coaching for heart failure patients and their caregivers
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests if remote motivational interviews can help people with heart failure and their caregivers better manage the condition at home. You and a family member or friend who helps care for you would join video sessions to improve self-care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older and have been diagnosed with heart failure (NYHA class II to IV, meaning you have some symptoms like shortness of breath or fatigue).
- Your self-care is currently poor, as determined by a baseline assessment.
- You get care at a participating heart failure clinic.
- You have internet access and a device (like a smartphone, tablet, or computer) for video calls.
- You have a primary informal caregiver (like a family member or friend) who is 18 or older, provides unpaid daily help, and is willing to join the study.
- You have not had a heart attack or other acute cardiac event in the last 3 months, and you do not live in a nursing home or have severe memory problems that would make it hard to participate in video sessions.
