Open to Provincial Region

Posted

The Heart Failure – Diagnosis and Management guideline is available for External Review until January 12, 2023.

The guideline provides recommendations for the diagnosis and management of people aged ≥ 19 years with suspected or confirmed heart failure in the primary care setting. It focuses primarily on chronic ambulatory heart failure. The revised guideline provides new recommendations on medication titration. Given that heart failure is associated with reduced life expectancy, advanced care planning and palliative care are also addressed in his revised version of the guideline.

Please visit the BC Guidelines External Review page to download the draft guideline and submit your feedback via our online questionnaire.

PVN has really helped us engage with patient partners to improve health services at Northern Health.  It is more and more becoming the norm to include patients in the design, delivery and evaluation of health services.  PVN education and supports, involving patient partners, have enabled us to develop the capacity to include the patient voice to make care better and achieve better health outcomes.
