Σύνοψη	The Heart Failure Somatic Awareness Scale (HFSAS) is a specialized measure that assesses heart failure patients' ability to recognize and accurately perceive early warning signs of disease worsening (somatic awareness), such as subtle changes in dyspnea, edema, weight, fatigue, or palpitations. Early recognition of decompensation signs enables prompt self-management action (diuretic adjustment, physician contact) and prevents costly hospitalizations. The HFSAS is essential in modern HF management, particularly with remote monitoring technologies and self-management support programs.	The Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHFQ) is a 21-item self-report measure that quantifies the multidimensional burden of heart failure on patients' daily living and quality of life. Developed by Rector, Kubo, and Cohn in 1987, the MLHFQ is the most widely used disease-specific QoL instrument in heart failure research and clinical practice, valued for its brevity, sensitivity to treatment response, and predictive value for prognosis.
