Summary

This study tests whether 8 weeks of phone-based mindfulness training can improve self-care and thinking skills in 176 adults with heart failure and mild cognitive impairment. Participants practice techniques like breath awareness and body scanning for 20 minutes daily. The goal is to see if this helps them manage their condition better.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
mindfulness training
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, phone-based way to help people with heart failure and memory problems manage their health better.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage study with only 176 participants. The benefits may be small or not last long, and results may not apply to everyone with heart failure.
