  • Background Efficient incorporation of e-health in patients with heart failure (HF) may enhance health care efficiency and patient empowerment. We aimed to assess the effect on self-care of (i) the European Society of Cardiology/Heart Failure Association website on top of usual care, and (ii) an e-health adjusted care pathway leaving out in person routine HF nurse consultations in stable HF patients. Methods and results In a three-group parallel-randomized trial in stable HF patients from nine Dutch outpatient clinics, we compared two interventions ( website and an e-health adjusted care pathway) to usual care. The primary outcome was self-care measured with the European Heart Failure Self-care Behaviour Scale. Secondary outcomes were health status, mortality, and hospitalizations. In total, 450 patients were included. The mean age was 66.8 +/- 11.0 years, 74.2% were male, and 78.8% classified themselves as New York Heart Association I or II at baseline. After 3 months of follow-up, the mean score on the self-care scale was significantly higher in the groups using the website and the adjusted care pathway compared to usual care (73.5 vs. 70.8, 95% confidence interval 0.6-6.2; and 78.2 vs. 70.8, 95% confidence interval 3.8- 9.4, respectively). The effect attenuated, until no differences after 1 year between the groups. Quality of life showed a similar pattern. Other secondary outcomes did not clearly differ between the groups. Conclusions Both the website and an e-health adjusted care pathway improved self-care in HF patients on the short term, but not on the long term. Continuous updating of e-health facilities could be helpful to sustain effects.
