Abstract

Chronic heart failure is linked to high rate of death and hospitalization. Some studies have highlighted the beneficial effect of heart failure clinics on morbidity and mortality. We have developed this type of structure at CHR Dubos since 3 years and we have recently created an heart failure clinic (10 beds). It's based on a concept including an experienced medical and nurse team, patient's and patient's family education and evaluation of the structure.
