The Effect of Distance Education on Self-care in Patients With Heart Failure in the Chronic or Stable Phase: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: This review shows the benefits of distance education on self-care, heart failure knowledge, and quality of life of patients with heart failure. The intervention duration, frequency, and duration of a single intervention could have affected the intervention effect.PMID:38345533 | DOI:10.1097/JCN.0000000000001083 (Source: The Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing)

Caregivers' Contributions to Heart Failure Self-care: An Updated Systematic Review
CONCLUSIONS: Newly identified caregiver-reported activities support updating the theory of self-care in chronic illness to include activities currently considered ancillary to HF self-care. Identified gaps highlight the need to define specific caregiving activities, determine task difficulty and burden, and identify caregiver self-care strategy and education needs. Exposing the hidden work of caregiving is essential to inform policy and practice.PMID:38306302 | DOI:10.1097/JCN.0000000000001060 (Source: The Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing)

Depressive Symptoms and Sleep Quality Mediate the Relationship Between Race and Quality of Life Among Patients With Heart Failure: A Serial Multiple Mediator Model
CONCLUSIONS: Depressive symptoms and sleep quality together mediated the relationship between race and QoL. These findings suggest that screening for depressive symptoms and sleep quality could identify patients at risk for poor QoL, especially in Black patients.PMID:38227624 | DOI:10.1097/JCN.0000000000001079 (Source: The Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing)

Effect of Intensive Nurse-Led Optimization of Heart Failure Medications in Patients With Heart Failure: A Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
CONCLUSION: This meta-analysis indicates that NLT clinics may improve optimization of guideline-recommended medications with the potential to reduce rehospitalization and improve survival in a cohort of patients known for their poor outcomes.PMID:38227630 | DOI:10.1097/JCN.0000000000001068 (Source: The Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing)

Psychometric Evaluation of the Heart Failure Somatic Perception Scale in a Middle Eastern Heart Failure Population
CONCLUSION: The reliability and validity of the HFSPS were supportive in this Middle Eastern sample. The HFSPS can be used to assess how bothersome HF symptoms are to improve their management.PMID:38200639 | DOI:10.1097/JCN.0000000000001074 (Source: The Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing)

Age-Stratified Sex Differences in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction Among Adult Hospitalizations
CONCLUSION: Before the age of 50 years, women exhibit lower HFpEF-related hospitalization than men, a pattern that reverses with advancing age. Understanding and addressing the factors contributing to these sex-specific differences can have several potential implications for improving women's cardiovascular health.PMID:38200643 | DOI:10.1097/JCN.0000000000001069 (Source: The Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing)

Patients' Perceptions of Hybrid and Virtual-Only Care Models During the Cardiac Rehabilitation Patient Journey: A Qualitative Study
CONCLUSIONS: Patients require ongoing support from time of referral to beyond CR program completion. Physical, psychosocial, nutritional, and educational supports are needed. Perceptions expressed by patients related to the program model are modifiable, and strategies to address these perceptions should be explored.PMID:38206327 | DOI:10.1097/JCN.0000000000001076 (Source: The Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing)

Factors Influencing Antihypertensive Medication Adherence Among Historically Underrepresented Adults: A Meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Understanding the impact of factors associated with antihypertensive MA in historically underrepresented adults can support development of targeted, culturally relevant MA interventions. Future research should examine the impact of system-level factors on antihypertensive MA among historically underrepresented populations.PMID:38198507 | DOI:10.1097/JCN.0000000000001077 (Source: The Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing)

Diet Quality Mediates the Relationship Between Chronic Stress and Inflammation in Patients With Metabolic Syndrome
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings show the important role of diet quality in the relationship of chronic stress with inflammation in patients with metabolic syndrome. Healthcare providers should encourage patients with higher stress to improve diet quality, which can decrease inflammation.PMID:38192030 | DOI:10.1097/JCN.0000000000001072 (Source: The Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing)

Mediators of the Association Between Cognitive Function and Self-care Behaviors in Patients Hospitalized With an Exacerbation of Heart Failure
CONCLUSIONS: Both HF knowledge and self-care confidence mediated the association of cognitive function with self-care maintenance, and only self-care confidence mediated the association between cognitive function and self-care management. Interventions targeting HF knowledge and self-care confidence may improve self-care even for those with lower cognitive function and need to be developed and tested.PMID:38099586 | DOI:10.1097/JCN.0000000000001066 (Source: The Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing)
