Summary

Non-adherence to the heart failure (HF) plan of care after hospital discharge has been associated with clinical outcomes, including the combined endpoint of all-cause mortality and rehospitalization for decompensated HF. Patients and informal caregivers receive education materials but may not act due to multiple factors. A recorded message that could be repeatedly played by patients and caregivers might increase adherence to post-discharge self-care behaviors and early follow-up appointments, and have clinical benefits related to a reduction in all-cause mortality and rehospitalization. The purposes of this randomized, controlled study are to examine the effects of use of a novel MyROAD (Recordable On-Demand Audio Discharge) card, given to patients at discharge. The aims of this single-blind, placebo-controlled study are to examine the effects of recorded messages that can be replayed post discharge (delivered via the MyROAD card) on multiple subjective and objective clinical outcomes.
