Abstract
Prior reports have documented extremely poor adherence to evidence-based medications
among South Asian patients with established chronic cardiovascular diseases. Treatment
adherence is now considered a part of the ‘self-care’ process, the determinants of which
have not been adequately explored or explained among South Asian patients with chronic
heart failure (CHF). Our objective was to qualitatively ascertain the determinants of the selfcare process among Indian patients with a lived experience of heart failure.
