Abstract

To receive optimal treatment and care, it is essential that heart failure (HF) patients react adequately to worsening symptoms and contact a health care provider early. This specific "patient delay" is an important part of the total delay time. The purpose of this study was to assess patient delay and its associated variables in HF patients.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. 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 01 June 2012.
All research outputs
#20,655,488
of 25,373,627 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Cardiac Failure
#1,799
of 2,027 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#105,014
of 122,520 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Cardiac Failure
#16
of 18 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,373,627 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,027 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 14.5. This one is in the 5th percentile – i.e., 5% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
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 122,520 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 6th percentile – i.e., 6% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 18 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 5th percentile – i.e., 5% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
