Abstract

Heart failure (HF) is one of the most common reasons for hospitalization and the leading cause of 30-day readmissions. There is great interest in developing strategies to reduce hospital utilization in this large and growing patient population. Aside from classic HF symptoms of dyspnea and fatigue, other symptoms reported include decreased appetite, pain and anxiety. These symptoms may be amenable to treatment and patients hospitalized with HF may benefit from intensive symptom management in the form of palliative care.
