Tiivistelmä
Heart failure (HF) is characterized as a multifaceted condition wherein individuals present with clinical warning signs associated with abnormalities in either the structure or function of the heart, in addition to common signs like fatigue, edema, and dyspnea. Globally, the incidence of heart failure (HF) is rising quickly. The illness results in substantial medical expenditures and high rates of death and disease and dramatically influences the well-being of individuals. This research aims to study the patient’s self-care management from HF patients and nursing’s role in promoting self-care behavior. Educating the patient about self-care management creates better knowledge to increase the quality of life and well-being.
This study was explored through a systematic review, examining the available evidence. The data can be accessed by FINNA Tritonia, provided by Novia University of Applied Sciences, PubMed, EBSCO, CINAHL, Un paywall, WHO, CDC and academic search elite.
The findings underscore the pivotal contribution of nurses in diminishing mortality, morbidity, and re-admission rates among HF patients. This is achieved through counselling, education, and active promotion of self-care practices. Moreover, the theme is divided into three categories: The role of nurses in promoting self-care management, setbacks in self- care management, and patients' perspectives on self-care. Furthermore, empowering individuals with heart failure through education significantly enhances their overall well-being and quality of life. Hence, it is strongly advised that nurses prioritize the organization of information, efficient time management, and enhancement of communication skills, as these aspects are paramount in meeting the educational and self-care expectations for patients with HF.
