Adherence to self-care practices and associated factors among heart failure patients in Ethiopia: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Heart failure is the leading cause of hospital stays, medical expenses, and fatalities, and it is a severe problem for worldwide public health. Successful heart failure therapy requires a high level of self-care as well as devotion to different elements of the treatment plan. Despite the positive effects of heart failure self-care on health outcomes, many heart failure patients engage in insufficient self-care behaviors. Additionally, conflicting information has been found regarding the prevalence and predictors of self-care behaviors in Ethiopia. As a result, this review's objective is to provide an overview of the most recent studies on Ethiopian heart failure patients' self-care practices.

Methods

We have used four databases such as PubMed, Science Direct, Scop
