Due to the complex nature of HF patients' conditions, long-term treatment and management are required, especially post hospital management, which is of great significance for improving patients' cardiac function and quality of life. With the increasing popularity of smartphones and the continuous development of medical technology, digital health intervention (DHI) has emerged as a new medical model in the treatment of diseases. This study will establish a comprehensive post hospital management model of HF based on DHI, including cognitive behavioral therapy, digital self-monitoring and remote dielectric sensing (ReDS™) technology, etc., comprehensively strengthen the post hospital intervention and management of HF. Objective to explore the effect of comprehensive post hospital management based on DHI on cardiac function of patients with HF 6 months after discharge.
