Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Heart failure is a global health issue that serves as the endpoint for many cardiovascular conditions, particularly coronary heart disease and hypertension. Common symptoms of heart failure include fatigue, dyspnea, edema, cough, lack of energy, orthopnea, paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea, palpitations, and dizziness. These symptoms significantly affect the health-related quality of life of individuals with heart failure, especially in the palliative phase of the disease. Additionally, heart failure patients often experience physical limitations, reduced quality of life, and an increased rate of hospital admissions due to symptoms such as breathlessness and fatigue. The Heart Failure Somatic Perception Scale assesses the presence and severity of 18 common physical signs and symptoms of heart failure (e.g. chest pain), as well as dyspnea and its impact on daily activities through six items. Robust and rigorous measures are needed to assess the complexity of heart failure symptoms, and evidence suggests that evaluating a broad range of heart failure symptoms can be beneficial in guiding rehabilitation approaches, clinical decision-making, and survival prediction.
