Quality and Health Literacy Demand of Online Heart Failure Information.

CONCLUSIONS: The heart failure information found online was of fair quality but required a relatively high health literacy level. Web content authors need to consider not just the quality but also the health literacy demand of the information found in their Web sites. This is especially important considering that low health literacy is likely prevalent among the usual audience. PMID: 26938508 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
