Distinct Factors Associated With Better Self-care in Heart Failure Patients With and Without Mild Cognitive Impairment.

CONCLUSION: We found that social support and executive function were associated with self-care in HF patients with MCI, whereas perceived control was associated with self-care in HF patients with intact cognition. Clinicians should develop tailored interventions to enhance self-care by considering the distinct factors associated with self-care based on the presence or absence of MCI.
