The primary objective of my dissertation is to gain insights into the effective management of heart failure patients through the application of e-health technology in primary care settings. I aim to identify the challenges faced by primary care professionals in delivering care to this patient population. Additionally, I will explore the barriers encountered and evaluate the effectiveness of a novel heart failure care model that incorporates innovative technologies, specifically ReDS, within primary care environments.
