Care-seeking delay of patients with heart failure in China : a mixed-method study
© 2024 The Authors. ESC Heart Failure published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd on behalf of European Society of Cardiology..
AIM: This study aims to explore the duration and influencing factors of care-seeking delay among patients with heart failure (HF) in China.
METHODS AND RESULTS: A convergent mixed method containing a cross-sectional study and two parts of qualitative studies was designed, following the STROBE and COREQ guidelines. Convenience sampling was applied to recruit patients with HF from two general hospitals from December 2021 to December 2022. Purposive sampling was used to enrol healthcare professionals from two general hospitals and two community hospitals from June to November 2022. Among the 258 patients with HF in the cross-sectional study, the median duration of care-seeking delay was 7.5 days. The result integration indicated that the delay duration was influenced by the dyspnoea symptom burden, the oedema symptom burden, and the depression status. The lower dyspnoea symptom burden, the higher oedema symptom burden, and the higher depression score were related to the prolonged care-seeking delay duration. The duration was also affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, level of support from medical system, and the symptom management abilities of the caregivers. The COVID-19 pandemic, low level of support from medical system, and limited symptom management abilities of caregivers were related to the prolonged care-seeking delay duration.
CONCLUSIONS: Care-seeking delay among patients with HF needs attention in China. The duration of care-seeking delay of patients with HF was influenced by the dyspnoea symptom burden, the oedema symptom burden, and depression status, as well as the COVID-19 pandemic, level of support from medical system, and the symptom management abilities of the caregivers.
