Why the study?
Does self-reported adherence to a low-sodium diet reflect actual dietary habits related to sodium intake in patients with chronic heart failure?
Does self-reported adherence to a low-sodium diet reflect actual dietary habits related to sodium intake in patients with chronic heart failure?
Self-reported adherence to a low-sodium diet is an unreliable indicator of actual sodium intake in heart failure patients, as patients often equate it only with avoiding table salt rather than avoiding high-sodium processed foods.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Self-reported low-sodium adherence may not capture actual intake in HF; leaves open whether objective measures are needed for trials.
Colin-Ramírez et al. (2014) studied this question.
