Patient Perspectives on Home-Based Care and Remote Monitoring in Heart Failure: A Qualitative Study.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

As individual interventions, home-based care and remote monitoring have been shown to help prevent hospitalizations for those with heart failure (HF) although both interventions have been limited by scalability and technical constraints, respectively. Few qualitative studies have explored patient perspectives, including acceptability, barriers, and facilitators of HF care inclusive of both interventions. The objective of this study is to explore patient perceptions on HF management at home, the use of home-based remote monitoring, and the value of home-based care.

Methods

Qualitative interviews (N = 27) were conducted via phone [phone]) with adults with HF. A framework analysis was used to identify main themes along with verbatim transcription for coding
