We have read the article published by Riegel et al.1 with great interest and enthusiasm. Briefly, the behavioral adherence of patients with
chronic congestive heart failure (HF) to dietary salt, fluid restriction and
diuretic use has been prospectively evaluated. The overall adherence
rates have been found to be 29% for low sodium diet, 45% for fluid
restriction and 72% for diuretic regimen at the end of the 3 month follow
up period. Although the restriction level of dietary sodium is not so
meticulously judged by self-report, it has the lowest adherence rate
among the behavioral adherence patterns as reported by the authors
