Inpatient vs. Outpatient: A Systematic Review of Information Needs throughout the Heart Failure Patient Journey.

ABSTRACT: The objective of this systematic review was to identify and describe information needs for individuals with heart failure (HF) throughout their patient journey. Six databases were searched (APA PsycINFO, CINAHL Ultimate, Embase, Emcare Nursing, Medline ALL, and Web of Science Core Collection) from inception to February 2023. Search strategies were developed utilizing the PICO framework. Potential studies of any methodological design were considered for inclusion through a snowball hand search. Data from the included articles were extracted by a reviewer, and the extraction accuracy was independently cross-checked by another author. Quality appraisal was assessed using the Mixed-Methods Appraisal Tool. A narrative synthesis was used to analyze all the outcomes according to the Synthesis Wit
