AB  - OBJECTIVES: Determine the relationship between cognitive function and health 
      literacy in heart failure (HF) knowledge in patients with HF. BACKGROUND: HF 
      requires extensive, complex treatment; thus, cognition and health literacy may 
      contribute to understanding and self-management of HF. METHODS: Participants were 
      330 HF outpatients. Health literacy was assessed using the Medical Term 
      Recognition Test and the Rapid Estimate of Adult Literacy in Medicine. Global 
      cognitive function was screened with the Modified Mini-Mental Status Examination. 
      HF knowledge was assessed with the Dutch Heart Failure Knowledge Scale (DHFKS). 
      RESULTS: Health literacy (beta = .26, p < .001) and cognition (beta = .36, p < .001) 
      were related to DHFKS. Both scores were independently associated with DHFKS 
      (health literacy: beta = .13, p = .044 and cognition: beta = .30, p < .001). 
      CONCLUSIONS: Impairments in health literacy and cognition were independently 
      associated with reduced HF knowledge. Interventions should address both factors 
      to be maximally effective.
