- Abstract
Medication adherence and perceived social support (PSS) are independent predictors of mortality in patients with heart failure (HF). However, the predictive power of the combination of medication adherence and PSS for hospitalization and death has not been investigated in patients with HF. The purpose of the study was to explore the combined influence of medication adherence and PSS for prediction of cardiac event-free survival in patients with HF.
