Background The number of people with heart failure significantly increases every year. Therefore, this study aims to determine the nurse-patient interaction capable of providing adequate care to post-treated heart failure patients in intensive care rooms.Design and methods This is a cross-sectional study with the consecutive sampling method used to obtain data from 100 posttreatment heart failure patients in intensive care rooms. PPIQ (Patient Professional Interaction Questionnaire) was used to measure nurse-patient interactions, while Self-care readiness was determined using the SCHFI (Self-Care Heart Failure Instrument).Result The result showed that there is a significant correlation between nurse-patient interactions and their readiness to care for post-treated heart failure patients in intensive care with a Pearson correlation value of 0.000 (p=0.05). Furthermore, both variables have a moderate and positive correlation strength and with a correlation coefficient value of 0.557.Conclusions The yearly increase in the number of re-hospitalized patients in hospitals can be reduced with an increase in nursepatient interaction. This enables patients to have the ability to take proper care of themselves after leaving the hospital.
