Factors Influencing Participation in PRADO and Telemedicine Interventions in Heart Failure

Краткое описание

Patients with heart failure (HF), after hospitalization, present a marked fragility. Interventions improving the coordination of care actors at the time of discharge from hospitalization have been tested and have shown, in preliminary studies, a reduction in rehospitalizations for heart failure and all-cause mortality. Among these promising devices, two have recently been deployed nationwide. * The return home program for IC patients (PRADO IC), set up by the Health Insurance, aims to facilitate the return and stay at home after hospitalization. It offers assistance with the initiation of outpatient medical follow-up, nursing follow-up for 2 to 6 months depending on the severity of the patient, and a follow-up log facilitating the exchange of information. * At the same time, as part of the ETAPES (Telemedicine experiments for the improvement of healthcare pathways) program of the Health Insurance, the deployment of telemedicine for remote monitoring of heart failure pursues a comparable objective of reducing rehospitalizations. These two systems are widely deployed on a national scale, and are intended to be universal. Our hypothesis is that adherence to care transition and telemedicine programs, and therefore their effectiveness, may depend on their association, as well as socio-demographic, cultural, and geographical factors.
