Detailed Answer:
Hello!
Welcome back on - Ask a Doctor - service!
Regarding your questions, I would like to explain that dedicated nurses play a crucial role in the managements of heart failure patients; not only by following their clinical status, therapy and lab tests recommended by the doctor, but also by giving support and advising the necessary steps on how to deal with everyday physical activities,diet, body weight and fluid balance control, etc.
Of course the above commitment and professional perseverance shown by home nurses and other dedicated HF centers nurses provide a lot of psychological support and help for an appropriate insight necessary for these patients with several physical daily limitations.
Hope to have clarified the points of your concern!
In case of any further questions, feel free to ask me again.
Kind regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka
