Summary

The goal is to define a set of clinical pathways for heart failure patients, reflecting the period from prior to admission to the post-discharge period following hospitalisation, under the current system that exists at the two clinical sites \[as mentioned previously, the main site is at St Vincent's University Hospital in Dublin, but to ensure generalizability the project team will also carry out similar work Portsmouth Hospital, United Kingdom\]. These pathways have been drawn up using the experience of the clinical investigators, using an interactive workshop approach and a pilot study.

1. Pre-Admission Pathway
2. Emergency Department Pathway
3. In-Hospital management Pathway
4. Pre-discharge Pathway
5. Post-Discharge Pathway

During identification of these pathways, the research team identified the settings/personnel that require study to more fully comprehend the methods, strengths and weaknesses of the present processes. Study activities are focused on two aspects of the patient journey, immediately before discharge and three months post discharge during the outpatient phase.
