Can a chat app fight loneliness in heart failure?

NCT ID NCT07234565

Summary

This study is testing whether a 6-week online group program on WeChat can help older adults with heart failure feel less socially isolated and improve their self-care. Researchers will compare the chat-based program, which includes video meetings and daily check-ins, to giving patients a standard educational manual. The goal is to see if the social support from the program makes a meaningful difference in patients' lives.
