Summary

The period of about a month after the discharge of acute heart failure patients is defined as a transition time. During this period, the patient has a high mortality rate and a readmission rate because the patient is not stabilized. In the United States and Europe, the readmission rate is more than 25% within 30 days, and the mortality rate within 30 days after discharge is three times that of patients with chronic heart failure. The TRANS-HF is a prospective, randomized, multi-center, controlled study, which enrolls patients with acute heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. The objective of TRANS-HF is to improve GAI at six months through three interventions: pre-discharge checklist, heart failure education, and telephone monitoring before the first outpatient visit.
