| Abstract |
To describe the partners' perspectives on participation in the care for patients with heart failure receiving home-care. Partners are often involved in care of patients with heart failure and have an important role in improving patients' well-being and self-care. Partners have described both negative and positive experiences of involvement, but knowledge of how partners of patients with heart failure view participation in care when the patient receives home-care is lacking. A convergent parallel mixed method design was used, including data from interviews and questionnaires. A purposeful sample of 15 partners was used. Data collection lasted between February 2010 - December 2011. Interviews were analyzed with content analysis and data from questionnaires (Participation, Caregiving, Health-related quality of life, Depressive Symptoms) were analyzed statistically. Finally results were merged, interpreted and labelled as comparable and convergent or as being inconsistent. Partners were satisfied with most aspects of participation, information and contact. Qualitative findings revealed four different aspects of participation; adapting to the caring needs and illness trajectory, coping with caregiving demands, interacting with health care providers and need for knowledge to comprehend the health situation. Results showed confirmatory results that were convergent and expanded knowledge that gave a broader understanding of partner participation in this context. The results revealed different levels of partner participation. Heart failure home-care included good opportunities for both participation and contact during home visits, necessary to meet partners' ongoing need for information to comprehend the situation.

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 13. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 05 March 2017.
All research outputs
#2,698,505
of 25,077,376 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Advanced Nursing
#1,236
of 5,611 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#52,649
of 432,911 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Advanced Nursing
#47
of 65 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,077,376 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 89th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,611 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 12.6. This one has done well, scoring higher than 77% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 432,911 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 87% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 65 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 29th percentile – i.e., 29% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
