Geriatric Assessment Screening Tool for the Identification of At-Risk Older Adults Who Are Undergoing Cancer Treatment
Feasibility of Implementation and Assessment of Geriatric Assessment Screening Tool in Outpatient Oncology Clinic
Study Overview
Status
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To determine the feasibility of training nurses to administer the Geriatric 8 (G8) screening tool in an oncology practice, to identify older patients (> 65 years old [y/o]) that would benefit from a more extensive Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To report the positive predictive value of the G8 screening tool with the final frailty designation determined by the Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment completed in patients referred to the Senior Adult Oncology Center (SAOC).
OUTLINE:
PHASE I:
Registered Nurses receive training on how to administer the G8 screening tool utilizing an Epic flowsheet to patients using a self-directed education module and by direct assessment by a geriatrician.
PHASE II:
Patients complete the G8 screening tool questionnaire over 10 minutes as part of their standard initial assessment, and their answers are entered into their electronic health record (EHR) flowsheet. Patients who score =< 14 on the G8 are referred for a CGA at SAOC, and these patients and their medical oncologists are made aware. Within 2 weeks of the initial screening, the results are communicated with the patient and medical oncologist at a 2-hour SAOC visit. Patients with a score of > 15 on the G8 are made aware of their results without any referral generated.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Overall assessment score: Pre
Time Frame: Before self-administered learning module
|
The score will be a number between 1-20.
The responses to two questions of primary interest, assessing their comfort caring for older adults and their comfort in administering the G8 tool, will be binary measurements.
The overall assessment scores from pre- and post- self-administered learning module will be compared using paired Wilcoxon test.

Overall assessment score: Post
Time Frame: After self-administered learning module

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Positive predictive value of the G8
Time Frame: Up to 30 months
|
The percentage of patients being determined as vulnerable/frail by Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA) at SAOC, i.e. the predictive positive value of G8, will be reported with its 95% confidence interval.
The summary statistics of additional collected SAOC metrics including the Timed Up and Go test, prior history of falls, cognitive screen, depression screen, mortality prognostication, expected life expectancy, social distress thermometer, Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA), presence of polypharmacy and inappropriate medications, and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score will be reported by means, standard deviations and percentages.
