Examining adherence and dose effect of an early palliative care intervention for advanced heart failure patients.
The objective of this study was to examine the "dose" effect of PC intervention completion vs. noncompletion on quality of life (QoL) and healthcare use in patients with advanced heart failure (HF) over 32 weeks. The investigators concluded that higher intervention completion rates of an early PC intervention was associated with QoL improvements in patients with advanced HF.
