Clinical Trial Summary

The objective is to evaluate the impact of a pharmacist-led therapeutic education intervention on the knowledge of hospitalized heart failure patients. The knowledge score on heart failure disease and medications will be compared between two groups one month after hospitalization. The intervention group will receive a therapeutic education intervention and usual hospital care and the control group will receive only usual hospital care.


Clinical Trial Description

Heart failure patients are at risk of decompensation of their disease and frequent hospitalizations. Poor adherence to their treatment may be the cause. By improving the knowledge of hospitalized heart failure patients about their disease and their medications, it is expected that these patients will adhere better to their heart failure drug therapy and benefit from a better effectiveness of their treatment. This could promote an improvement in their quality of life, a decrease in their risk of disease complications and even an increase in their life expectancy. The objective of this research project is to deploy a therapeutic teaching intervention at the bedside of decompensated and hospitalized heart failure patients, associated with follow-up by the pharmacist at discharge from the hospital, and to measure its impact on knowledge change (primary endpoint), on their beliefs about medications, on their therapeutic adherence, and on the consumption of unplanned care such as rehospitalizations and emergency room visits (secondary endpoints). ;
