5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The study aims to explore the effectiveness of psycho-behavioral intervention on depressive symptoms among older adults with chronic heart failure. Meanwhile, the effect on cardiac function and quality of life will also be explored.
Detailed Description
Depression has been one of the emerging health concerns for older adults, especially for those with chronic heart failure (CHF). It was about 4-5 times more prevalent among patients with CHF than healthy population and independently associated with poor outcome of CHF. As suggested in the clinical management guideline of CHF, it is imperative to create integrative intervention for older adults with CHF, including timely detection and intervention, and ultimately improving the clinical outcome of CHF. However, the approach appropriate for depression intervention among Chinese older adults has yet been developed. This study aims to explore the effectiveness of psycho-behavioral intervention on depression associated with chronic heart failure in old age.
