Abstract

The study aims to provide knowledge of self-care for patients with COVID 19 and with heart failures. In the United States, between 2011 and 2014, an estimated 6.5 million Americans over the age of 20 had chronic heart failure The estimated prevalence of heart failure in Asia ranges from 1.26% to 6.7%, in Southeast Asian countries from 4.5% to 6.7%. This study used Health education intervention that was carried out for 90 patients with chronic heart failure inpatient treatment at Cardiology Department - Nam Dinh General Hospital. The rate of heart failure in Korea was estimated at 1.53% in 2013. The frequency of heart failure in Korea is expected to double, from 1.60% in 2015 to 3.35% in 2040. By 2040, more than 1.7 million Koreans are expected to have heart failure .In Japan, an estimated 1.0 million patients have heart failure and the number of outpatients with left ventricular dysfunction is expected to gradually increase to 1.3 million by 2030 In China, 4.2 million people suffer from heart failure and 500,000 new cases are diagnosed each year). We perform method of one-group intervention study with before-after comparison. Health education intervention was carried out in 90 patients with chronic heart failure inpatient treatment at Cardiology Department - Nam Dinh General Hospital. Our results show that patients with cardiovascular disease need to be aware that they are a very high risk group for infection as well as serious complications that may occur if they are unfortunately infected with COVID-19. This research finding and recommended healthy foods to support for better health of patients with chronic heart failure in many developing countries. Last but not least, vital roles of nurses in Nam Dinh and Vietnam hospitals have been increasing in recent years in helping patients and help them to gain knowledge for self-care with COVID 19 and with heart failures and practice “Maintenance of care” of patients with chronic heart failure.

Highlights

  • Korea is expected to double, from 1.60% in 2015 to 3.35% in 2040

  • Our results show that patients with cardiovascular disease need to be aware that they are a very high risk group for infection as well as serious complications that may occur if they are infected with COVID-19

  • The reason for the high mortality of cardiovascular patients with COVID-19 is because when the SARS-CoV-2 virus enters the body, it will trigger underlying heart disease and cause a severe inflammatory response in the blood vessels and heart muscle that leads to heart failure (Ngoc, P.T.B., Nhung, P.T.H., Huy, D.T.N., 2021), heart attack, arrhythmia, acute coronary syndrome, acute heart failure

Summary

Introduction

Korea is expected to double, from 1.60% in 2015 to 3.35% in 2040. By 2040, more than 1.7 million Koreans are expected to have heart failure .In Japan, an estimated 1.0 million patients have heart failure and the number of outpatients with left ventricular dysfunction is expected to gradually increase to 1.3 million by 2030 In China, 4.2 million people suffer from heart failure and 500,000 new cases are diagnosed each year). Health education intervention was carried out in 90 patients with chronic heart failure inpatient treatment at Cardiology Department - Nam Dinh General Hospital. Heart failure is a condition in which the heart muscle is no longer able to pump enough blood to various organs in the body This is the end result of heart disease, artery disease, systemic diseases [1]. The reason for the high mortality of cardiovascular patients with COVID-19 is because when the SARS-CoV-2 virus enters the body, it will trigger underlying heart disease and cause a severe inflammatory response in the blood vessels and heart muscle that leads to heart failure (Ngoc, P.T.B., Nhung, P.T.H., Huy, D.T.N., 2021), heart attack, arrhythmia, acute coronary syndrome, acute heart failure. If infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus, their disease will be more severe, the ability to recover is difficult compared to the average person
