Proactive approaches in congestive heart failure: the significance of early goals of care discussion and palliative care.
Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) poses significant challenges to the healthcare system due to its high rates of morbidity and mortality as well as frequent readmissions. All of these factors contribute to increased healthcare delivery costs. Besides the burden on the healthcare system, CHF has far deeper effects on the patient in terms of psychological burden along with debilitating symptoms of dyspnea, all of which reduce quality of life. Prognostic awareness among patients about their disease along with initiating early goals of care discussion by those involved in the care (physicians, nurses, social worker and patient themselves) can help mitigate these challenges. Adopting a proactive approach to address patient preferences, values and end-of-life goals improves patient-centred care, enhances quality of life and reduces the strain on healthcare resources. In this narrative review, studies have been identified using PubMed search to shed knowledge on what is preventing the initiation of goals of care discussions. Some barriers include lack of knowledge about prognosis in both patients and caregivers, inexperience or discomfort in having those conversations and delaying it until CHF becomes too advanced.
期刊介绍:
Research advances have contributed to improved outcomes across all specialties, but the rate of advancement in cardiology has been exceptional. Concurrently, the population of patients with cardiac conditions continues to grow and greater public awareness has increased patients" expectations of new drugs and devices. Future Cardiology (ISSN 1479-6678) reflects this new era of cardiology and highlights the new molecular approach to advancing cardiovascular therapy. Coverage will also reflect the major technological advances in bioengineering in cardiology in terms of advanced and robust devices, miniaturization, imaging, system modeling and information management issues.
