Criterios para selección de la muestra: pacientes ingresados con diagnóstico de IC, estadio C y D de (AHA), clase III, IV de (NYHA), supervivencia esperada mayor de seis meses y capacidad potencial para el autocuidado. Variables: edad, sexo, debut de la IC, comorbilidad (Yesavage, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Memory Impairment Screen) dependencia(Barthel, Lawton y Brody), riesgo social (Duke), nivel de conocimientos de la enfermedad, adherencia al tratamiento (Escala Morinsky) y autocuidado (European Heart Failure Self Behaviour Scale).Resultados: 35 pacientes incluidos.

Objectives: to identify the demographic and chronicity characteristics of patients diagnosed with Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) seen by the hospital liaison nurse, as well as their treatment compliance and their level of know -ledge and self-care. Method: descriptive transversal study conducted in the Hospital Universitario Araba (Álava), both in Txagorritxu and Santiago, between May, 2011and January, 2012. Criteria for sample selection: Patients hospitalized with CF diagnosis, AHA stages C and D, NYHA Class III and IV, life expectancy above 6 months, and potential self-care abilities. Variables: age, gender, CF start, comorbidity (Yesavage, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Memory Impairment Screen), dependence (Barthel, Lawton y Brody), social risk(Duke), level of knowledge about the disease, treatment compliance (Morinsky Scale) and self-care (European Heart Failure Self Behaviour Scale).Outcomes: 35 patients were included. Median age: 80.4 years; a median of7.5 associated conditions; 82.85% were poly-medicated; 25.71% with no treatment compliance; 47.06% dependent for DLAs and 45.71% for instrumental activities; 71.42% of patients had poor or no knowledge about CHF management. There is no significant link between the recent start of CHF and knowledge (p= 0.46); moderate self-care, expressed by a median 33.03(± 6.07).Conclusions: CHF patients subject to hospital liaison nurse care are complex patients, highly fragile due to their pluripathology, poly-medication, and advanced age. They have poor knowledge in order to manage their health condition (AU)
