Abstract:
Congestive heart failure (CHF) is a prevalent disease that causes patients troubling symptoms, which can be difficult for clinicians to manage. A descriptive pilot study examining the weighing behaviors of patients with CHF and their symptom distress was conducted, and the findings have implications for future research and patient management.
