Key result
An educational intervention improved the total quality of life score in heart failure patients by a mean difference of 20.61 points at 90 days compared to baseline.

Educational programs may improve quality of life in heart failure patients; hypothesis-generating and requires randomized confirmation before practice change.
Heart failure is one of the most common cardiovascular diseases which decrease the quality of life. Most of the factors influencing the quality of life can be modified with educational interventions. Therefore, this study examined the impact of educational program on quality of life of congestive heart failure patients.

Nazakat et al. (2022) studied Congestive heart failure (n=36). Educational intervention vs. Baseline was evaluated on Total quality of life score measured by the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHFQ) at 90 days (MD 20.61, p=<0.001). An educational intervention improved the total quality of life score in heart failure patients by a mean difference of 20.61 points at 90 days compared to baseline.
