Hiatt, MPH, MS, RN; Rosaria Alvaro, MSN, RN; Raul Juarez Vela, PhD, RN; Barbara Riegel, PhD, RN, FAHA, FAAN Background: The majority of heart failure (HF) self-care research remains focused on patients, despite the important involvement of family caregivers. Although self-care confidence has been found to play an important role in the effectiveness of HF self-care management on patient outcomes, no known research has examined self-care confidence within a dyadic context. Objective: The purpose of this study was to identify individual and dyadic determinants of self-care confidence in HF care dyads. Methods: Multilevel modeling, which controls for the interdependent nature of dyadic data, was used to examine 329 Italian HF dyads (caregivers were either spouses or adult children). Results: Both patients and caregivers reported lower-than-adequate levels of confidence, with caregivers reporting slightly higher http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing Wolters Kluwer Health
