Heart Failure Food Intervention Trial: Impact of a Guideline-based Nutrition Digital Tool in Heart Failure Patient Clinical Outcomes

Exclusion Criteria

• •• Patients with certain patient history (cognitive disabilities) and end stage renal or metastatic cancer diagnosis
• •* Patients with active drug/substance use. Patients with heart failure who have active substance use are excluded from the study. HF patients with substance use require additional monitoring and follow up due to potential severe withdrawal symptoms, acute HF exacerbation and drug overdose or medication errors. Standard protocol includes additional monitor vital signs (e.g., blood pressure, heart rate) and HF symptoms (e.g., edema, dyspnea), and performing regular laboratory tests (e.g., renal function, electrolytes) which is beyond the clinical and logistical capabilities of this study.
