Abstract

Prognosis for heart failure is linked to patient's compliance. Compliance is also dependent from patient education about his disease and treatment. Therapeutic education could be done in a community hospital but needs a lot of time. However, therapeutic education for heart failure patients becomes more and more essential in clinical practice and improves patient knowledge and implication and hospitalization duration.
