Description
Heart failure providers share design advice for a home pain tool, Youjeong Kang, Yong Kyung Choi, and Seung-Eun Oh report in a 2023 study. Nearly eighty percent of heart failure patients are older adults, who face high hospitalization risk. Older adults may respond slowly to pain that could trigger symptom burden, such as breathlessness from added cardiovascular workload. Providers may also be poorly prepared to assess pain in specific populations.
In-depth interviews with twenty heart failure specialists across different states fed a qualitative secondary analysis. Recommendations included a checklist of questions about past pain experience, living environment, and activities that trigger pain. Preferences split between electronic tools, such as a phone app, and simpler formats. Readers designing remote care tools get provider-grounded guidance.
