Heart failure patients and caregivers get a boost from Nurse-Led training
NCT ID NCT06545370
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether nurse-led education for heart failure patients and their informal caregivers can improve patients' quality of life, self-care, and medication adherence. About 280 patients recently hospitalized for heart failure and their caregivers will receive oral sessions, educational materials, and regular phone calls. The goal is to see if training both patients and caregivers together leads to better outcomes than training patients alone.

Active substance
nurse-led education
What this could lead to
If it works, this could show that teaching patients and caregivers together improves daily life and reduces hospital visits for heart failure.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study focused on education, not a new drug or device. Results may not apply to all heart failure patients, and improvements may be modest.
