These symptoms result in the patient being unable to perform self-care optimally, so they need help from others, especially family.

Summary
Gagal jantung atau heart failure adalah sindrom klinis kompleks yang ditandai dengan ketidakmampuan jantung dalam memompa darah secara adekuat (Bachrudin & Najib, 2016). Hasil penelitian Riegel, dkk (2009) menunjukkan bahwa pasien dengan gagal jantung baik di negara maju maupun berkembang memiliki perilaku perawatan diri yang rendah. Untuk meningkatkan kualitas perawatan diri pasien, peningkatan perbaikan gejala, morbiditas, prognosis dan keberhasilan dalam pengobatan gagal jantung diperlukan manajemen keperawatan mandiri yang efektif (PERKI, 2015). Hasil studi literartur juga didapatkan bahwa motivasi dan partisipasi keluarga dalam perawatan mandiri pasien gagal jantung masih rendah.
