Predicted relationships between cognitive function, depressive symptoms, self-care adequacy, and health-related quality of life and major events among patients with heart failure

Abstract

Cognitive function is an important factor for health-related quality of life and major events, and memory loss - worsened health-related quality of life and poor executive function was more likely to increase the risk of major events. Future studies should consider both cognitive function and depressive symptoms when designing heart failure interventions to improve patient outcomes.
