Key result
Dyadic self-care interventions improve chronic HF outcomes, particularly depression, anxiety, and treatment adherence.
Why the study?
Dyadic self-care in chronic heart failure is key to ensuring treatment continuity, reducing complications and readmissions, and minimising caregiver burden, but it requires specific strategies.
Do dyadic self-management interventions improve outcomes in patients with chronic heart failure in hospital settings?

Supports dyadic self-care integration in chronic HF practice; extends evidence for psychosocial and adherence gains across studies.
Dyadic self-care in chronic heart failure (CHF) is key to ensure treatment continuity, reduce complications and readmissions, and minimise caregiver burden, but it requires specific strategies. The aim of the study was to identify dyadic self-management interventions in CHF in hospital settings by means of a systematic literature review conducted in the Pubmed, CINAHL and PsycInfo databases. Methodological quality was assessed according to CASPe and Joanna Briggs Institute tools. The main components of the interventions were identified: delivery format; dimensions and strategies used (cognitive-attitudinal, affective-emotional and behavioural); providers and recipients; measurement instruments used; and effectiveness. Most of the studies demonstrated improved outcomes, especially in depression and/or anxiety symptoms, adherence to treatment, diet and weight control. Innovative interventions that include components of the three dimensions identified and the use of valid, reliable and specific scales to measure outcomes are recommended.

Villero-Jiménez et al. (2022) conducted a systematic review in Chronic heart failure. Dyadic self-care interventions was evaluated on Effectiveness (depression/anxiety symptoms, adherence to treatment, diet and weight control). Dyadic self-care interventions in chronic heart failure improved outcomes across most studies, particularly for depression, anxiety, treatment adherence, diet, and weight control.
