Clinical Trials

Overview

About this study

We will longitudinally (at enrollment and 6 months after) ascertain patients’ end of life preferences, patient activation and health literacy in prospectively enrolled Southeastern Minnesota residents hospitalized with heart failure (HF). 

We will define the relationship between HF patients’ end of life preferences and degree of advance care planning and healthcare resource utilization. 

We will measure perceived treatment burden in patients hospitalized with heart failure using a novel questionnaire that has been validated in patients with multimorbidity.
