The occurrences of the countries can greatly influence the outcomes of patients with heart failure. This is true in developing countries that were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic socially, economically, and politically. Research should be done regularly to establish the effect of these changes on patients with heart failure. Nevertheless, nursing roles are the common denominator that should be adapted to all the changes and provided despite all challenges to assure improved outcomes. Such practices include discharge education tailored to the subjective needs of the patients and continuous, uninterrupted follow-up despite of all the occurrences. These practices are likely to decrease adverse outcomes in patients with heart failure.
