Abstract
<p>Introduction: Chronic heart failure (CHF) is a syndrome with high morbidity and mortality rates, having a tremendous impact in patient’s quality of life (QoL) and in the entire health system. HF Clinics intend to cope with the complexity of the clinical management of these patients (pts), aiming to improve outcomes due to a proximity model with a systematic and multidisciplinary approach.</p> <p>Methods: Analysis of the pts prospectively followed at a HF Clinic (N = 152), including the QoL indicators (Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire – KCCQ and European HF Self-care Behavior Scale - EHFScBS), emergency department (ER) visits, HF hospitalizations and all-cause mortality and comparing the last indicator with the previous rate before the creation of the Clinic.</p> <p>Results: After 6 months of follow-up (FU), 10% of pts improved the KCCQ score and 90% remained at the highest scores and 78% improved in the EHFScBS. Comparing the first trimester with the last one (in a period of 9 months), there was a reduction of ER visits due to HF decompensation from 23.5% to 8.7% and of HF hospitalization rate from 53% to 12.5%. After 9 months of FU, the all-cause mortality rate dropped from 18.1% to 7%.</p> <p>Conclusions: The implementation of a HF Clinic have a significant impact regarding both the QoL of the pts and the ER visits/hospitalizations and mortality rates, due to a proximity model with a systematic and multidisciplinary approach.</p>
