Summary

The goal of this pilot interventional study is to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a supportive intervention for patients affected by heart failure. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Are implementation strategies effective in facilitating participant fidelity?
* What factors contribute to patients' satisfaction with the designed intervention, and how can these be optimized for improved patient experience and adherence?
* Are the methods and tools established the most appropriate to ensure the completeness of the data collection?

Participants will follow a combined intervention consisting of:

1. pre-discharge educational meeting;
2. telephone nurse-led coaching sessions;
3. home telemonitoring of vital signs.

In the main trial, researchers will compare data from the intervention group with a control group to assess whether it reduces hospitalization rates and improves self-care capabilities

Nurse-led telephone coaching intervention with home telemonitoring of vital signs

In addition to standard care, the intervention group will receive a nurse-led supportive programme that involves a pre-discharge educational meeting and 6-month telephone coaching sessions. Patient's caregivers will also be invited to participate. After discharge, patients will be asked to measure their vital signs, daily. In case of alteration, the nurse will ascertain the presence of congestion symptoms and decide to reinforce the recommendations for self-management, request a specialist medical consultant, or refer to the emergency services
