Home care challenge: can shorter hospital stays with home support beat traditional heart failure treatment?
NCT ID NCT04878263
Summary
This study tested a new way of caring for people just hospitalized for acute heart failure. It compared the usual longer hospital stay to a plan with a shorter hospital stay (up to 4 days) followed by about 10 days of coordinated medical care at home. The goal was to see if this new approach was just as safe, could reduce return trips to the hospital, improve quality of life, and help patients stick to their medications better over 6 months.
