Brief Summary: The idea behind the Future Patient research project is to develop a telerehabilitation program and tools for patients with heart failure. The hypothesis for this study is that participation in a telerehabilitation program for patients with heart failure will increase the patients' quality of life and multi-parametric (subjective and objective) individualized monitoring in a telerehabilitation program for patients with heart failure will increase detection of worsening of symptoms and avoid future hospitalization of the HF-patients.
Detailed Description: The overall aim is to test, implement and evaluate a telerehabilitation program for patients with heart failure from clinical, psychosocial, health literacy and e-health literacy, inter-organizational, health economic and technical perspectives. Furthermore, this study has sub aims: * To increase the quality of life for patients with Heart Failure (HF) * To optimize the medical treatment of patients with HF * To perform multi-parametric (subjective and objective) individualized monitoring in order to detect worsening of symptoms and avoid hospitalizations * To increase physical activities for patients with heart failure in everyday life in a telerehabilitation program * To facilitate patient-initiated self-care management actions upon the following early detection of changes in source data (steps taken, weight, blood pressure, pulse, sleep, illness perception, motivation, anxiety and depression) * To evaluate patients health literacy and e-health literacy participating in a telerehabilitation program and rehabilitation program * To test and evaluate the Heart Portal - a digital toolbox for improved self-management for patients with heart failure and their relatives * To explore the experiences and perspectives of the patients and their relatives when being part of a telerehabilitation program * To test and evaluate a cross sector communication platform from a patient and healthcare professional perspective * To perform a cost-effectiveness analysis of total costs of healthcare and rehabilitation services
