Study Summary
The goal is to conduct a pilot trial that provides 4 weeks of medically-tailored meals (MTM) to patients with heart failure (HF) via collaboration with the Philadelphia Meals on Wheels chapter to assess the feasibility of such an intervention. Patients will be enrolled during either an inpatient hospitalization or an emergency department (ED) visit, and will be randomized into 1 of 2 arms: 1) MTM or 2) usual care that follows guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT). Evidence gathered from this study will guide the design of a larger randomized controlled trial to be submitted to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to evaluate the scalability, sustainability and cost-effectiveness of MTM for improving outcomes for patients with HF.
Primary Outcome
Feasibility will be measured by the number of patients enrolled in the study. We aim to enroll 30 total patients.
