Abstract
<p><strong>Introduction:</strong> Heart Failure (HF) is a syndrome associated with high morbidity and mortality. HF hospitalizations (HFH) correlate with the severity of the disease and its prognosis, highlighting the need to develop tools to avoid hospital admissions. According to the European Society of Cardiology (ESC), multidisciplinary teams are more effective in achieving this purpose. Nursing team has a major role on the development of a close relationship with HF pts, and is a determinant factor for compliance achievement.</p> <p><strong>Aims:</strong> Describe the purpose and the organization of a Heart Failure Clinic (HFC) nursing team approach in a multidisciplinary program to support pts with HF.</p> <p><strong>Practical Approach:</strong> Since the development of our HFC in january 2011, nursing intervention has evolved over the years in order to better support HF pts and to answer to their needs. The main purpose is to improve health status, pts compliance and knowledge about the disease. Nursing intervention focuses on 3 main fields according to ESC recommendations: hospital discharge planning, lifestyle advice and exercise training.</p> <p>During hospital admission, nursing team provides information about pts illness, lifestyle modifications and self-care education. During HFH, pts are submitted to a medical assessment by a HF specialist to decide which pts would benefit to be included in the HFC. At 3<sup>rd </sup>- 5<sup>th</sup> day after discharge, there is a phone-call appointment that consists in a symptomatic evaluation and confirmation of the prescribed therapy. Before the 15<sup>th</sup> day, both medical and nurse appointment takes place, focusing on clinical status, pts knowledge about the disease, therapy adjustments and a teaching session about cardiac rehabilitation and exercise training. According to the pts needs, new appointments at 1 month and every 6 months are scheduled. A phone number is available for pts to contact the HFC directly.</p> <p>Nursing intervention is assessed by using validated scores and questionnaires, such as the European Heart Failure Self-Care Behaviour Scale, the European Quality of Life Index and the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire, before and after nursing teaching sessions.</p> <p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> According to the ESC guidelines, multidisciplinary team programs are a Class IA recommendation. Therefore, nurse intervention in a HFC provides a way to better acomplish pts needs, invest in their compliance, improve prognosis and reduce HFH.</p>
