| Core Tip |
Depression is common in heart failure (HF) and reliably identifies patients at higher risk of poor self-care, rehospitalization, and death, yet treating depression has not consistently improved hard heart failure outcomes. Using new data from a retrospective cohort study, this editorial calls for a pragmatic form of “psychocardiology”: routinely screening for depression, embedding simple collaborative-care models into HF services, and using digital tools cautiously as supports rather than standalone solutions. The goal is not to promise fewer HF events, but to reduce the avoidable suffering associated with living with both HF and depression. |
