    The study analyzed home fluid management in 268 chronic heart failure patients, focusing on transitions over one to three months post-discharge.

  • 2

    Three latent profiles of home fluid management were identified: high, medium, and low-level groups, with varying stability and transition rates.

  • 3

    Patients in persistent low and medium groups had significantly higher symptom burden scores compared to those in the persistent high-level group.

  • 4

    Approximately 50.39% of patients maintained their original management status, while 21.03% deteriorated and 28.58% improved.

    The findings support the need for individualized intervention strategies to enhance fluid management and reduce symptom burden in chronic heart failure patients.
