简要总结
This study will recruit 100 patients from a post-discharge medicine clinic to test if the addition of a pharmacist to manage heart failure medications can increase appropriate use of these medications. Participants will be randomly assigned to usual care alone or with the addition of a pharmacist to help manage medications. They will be followed for 3 months by telephone/electronically-administered questionnaires, and 12 months using administrative health records. Outcome data will include information from patients on quality of life, treatment burden, medication adherence, as well as information from their medical record on heart failure events.

结局指标
主要结局
Optimization Potential Score
时间窗: 3 months
Score that quantifies guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) use in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. The score ranges from 0 (worst) to 10 (best). For HFmrEF, this will be modified to assign equal weight to ACEI/ARB/ARNI (score range 0-8). For HFpEF, this will be further modified to assign equal weight to ACEI/ARB/ARNI, and to assign no points for beta-blocker use (score range 0-6).
次要结局
- Composite hierarchical outcome(3 months)
