Key result
Self-management interventions lower readmissions and improve quality of life in CHF without affecting mortality.
Why the study?
The study was conducted to explore the influence of self-management intervention on readmission rate, mortality rate, self-management ability, and quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure.
Does self-management intervention improve readmission rate, mortality, self-management ability, and quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure?
Meta-Analysis (n=3,459)
Does self-management intervention improve readmission rate, mortality, self-management ability, and quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure?
Self-management interventions in chronic heart failure patients effectively reduce readmissions and improve quality of life and self-management ability, though they do not significantly impact mortality.
Supports integrating self-management interventions into chronic HF care to reduce readmissions and improve quality of life; confirms benefits in meta-analysis.
AIM: The purpose of this study is to explore the influence of self-management intervention on four prognostic indicators of readmission rate, mortality rate, self-management ability and quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure. DESIGN: A meta-analysis. METHODS: This study was selected from the related studies published from January 1999 to January 2022, and was searched by searching five databases: PubMed, Science of Website, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wan Fang and Wei Pu (VIP). All standardized randomized controlled trial studies were collected, and the quality evaluation and meta-analysis of the included literature were conducted. RESULTS: This study included 20 randomized controlled trials involving 3459 patients with chronic heart failure. Meta-analysis results showed that self-management intervention could reduce the readmission rate of patients with chronic heart failure, improved self-management ability of patients, improved quality of life, but there was no statistical significance in mortality.

Feng et al. (2022) conducted a meta-analysis in chronic heart failure (n=3,459). self-management intervention was evaluated on readmission rate, mortality rate, self-management ability and quality of life. Self-management intervention reduced readmission rates, improved self-management ability, and improved quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure, with no significant effect on mortality.
