HF symptom assessment

Published

Specializes in Critical care (coronary care).

on of the important aspect of self care in patients with HF is symptom assessment and management. please comment to this question. Does Cultural differences play a role in the assessment of signs and symptoms of heart failure? I mean that does HF patients around the world assess their disease differently or all of them diagnose their symptom similarly? please exclude frequency and severity of each symptom, just think about cultural differences.

Why don't you share your opinion first? Or is this homework assignment?

I don't need homework. especially in the age of 38. I think people around the world have different system of thinking and judging. I guess different culture can lead to different thinking so it is likely lead to assess their situation differently. for HF patient, are this true?

frankly, I don' need H/W. just want to know from the view point of different nurses.
