Exploratory Evaluation of Multidisciplinary Collaboration in Developing a Community-Based Heart Failure Care System

Background: Early detection of heart failure (HF) relies on community-based interventions supported by seamless coordination. In this study, we examined the challenges and opportunities in developing HF support system, drawing on hospital-led community collaboration activities and a participant survey. Methods and Results: A cross-sectional survey of 31 participants in a regional multidisciplinary meeting yielded 13 responses (41.9%). Non-medical professionals demonstrated lower baseline knowledge but higher satisfaction and learning effectiveness. Principal component analysis revealed occupational differences. Conclusions: Foundational education was effective, particularly for non-medical professionals, and highlighted the need to address disparities in knowledge and tool utilization.
