Summary

This study looked at whether closer collaboration between doctors and pharmacists could reduce hospital readmissions for people with heart failure. About 229 adults hospitalized for heart failure took part. Researchers compared standard care to a more coordinated approach where pharmacists helped manage medications. The main goal was to see if this teamwork lowered the chance of being readmitted within three months.
