Self-care is recognized as an important element in the comprehensive management of patients with heart failure. The study aimed to explore the correlations of self-care behaviors in chronic heart failure patients in Kermanshah, West Iran. Design Descriptive and analytical cross-sectional. Setting Hospital.

Measures Demographic information, European Heart Failure Self-care Behavior Scale. Analysis Independent-sample t test, ANOVA, and Kruskal-Wallis in SPSS-24. The significance level was set at 5%. Results The participants’ age was 63.04 ± 14.1 years. The mean and standard deviation of the participants’ self-care behaviors was 2.91 ± 31.00, and only 20.60% of the patients reported engaging in satisfactory self-care behaviors. Self-care behaviors were significantly related to Income level, ethnicity, family history of background disease, history of co-morbidity, history of addiction, access to medical centers, and not with any other variables. Conclusion Based on the study’s results, most participants exhibited moderate self-care behaviors, suggesting that these patients may need preventive educational interventions to acquire the knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary for effective self-care behaviors.
