HEART FAILURE
One hundred heart failure patients were divided into two intervention and control groups for this randomized clinical trial study. The patients were then given the pre-test questionnaires, such as the demographic questionnaire and the Quality of Life Index (QLI) by Ferrans and Powers. The intervention group was given the home care plan. To measure the quality of life one month after the intervention, the quality of life questionnaire was lastly filled out by both groups following the last care session. Software called SPSS 22 was used to enter and analyze the patient data.
