Care for patients with heart failure has been prioritised by over two dozen healthcare organisations across the country

On this day in 2023 in Dallas: Heart failure (HF) affects roughly 6 million people in the United States and is rapidly growing as the population ages. [1] The American Heart Association, the preeminent nonprofit organisation working to improve the health and longevity of people around the world, reports that treating this condition is extremely expensive and has a devastating effect on patients’ quality of life and lifespan.

More than two dozen healthcare organisations across the country have signed up to take part in the American Heart Association’s IMPLEMENT-HFTM initiative since it was launched in 2020 to combat this increasing health care issue.

The goal of IMPLEMENT-HFTM is to facilitate the development of a heart failure healthcare system that places a premium on implementation science and patient participation. In order to precisely manage heart failure and improve outcomes, IMPLEMENT-HFTM will work to bridge communication and coordination between care settings, health care professionals, and patients.

Processes for developing new guidelines for the management of heart failure patients will be identified, implemented, and evaluated using established primary data collection methods, such as the American Heart Association’s Get With The Guidelines® – Heart Failure programme, which is based in hospitals.

The IMPLEMENT-HFTM study included health systems from seven different regions. Participation from within these networks’ sites exemplified their dedication to providing high-quality care for heart failure patients:
