Přehled studie

Detailní popis

Investigators will review the ED electronic medical record in real-time to determine ED patients' study eligibility. Older, chronically ill ED patients who are eligible and agree to participate in the study will be randomly assigned to a healthcare coach and Care Transition Intervention or usual, post-ED care.

At the time of enrollment, all subjects will be asked to provide informed consent for study investigators to request Medicare Claims to determine how many ED visits, hospital admissions and doctor office visits the subject had at least 30 days after the index ED visit. All research participants will be asked basic personal information such as age, race, sex, employment and marital status. All subjects will be asked to complete a baseline survey about their quality of life.

If the subject is assigned to the Care Transition Intervention, the healthcare coach will visit the subject at home within 3 days of the ED visit. The coach will talk with the subject about following up with a regular, personal doctor and symptoms that indicate a worsening health condition. The coach will help the subject understand their medicines and help the subject make a personal health record (PHR). The coach will tell the subject about the Area Agency on Aging. If the subject receives usual care, they but will be given the usual discharge instructions from the ED nurse and doctor. If the subject receives the Care Transition Intervention, the coach will also call the subject at least 3 times after the ED visit and review the same items listed above.

All enrolled subjects will be asked to complete a phone survey within 31-60 days of the ED visit. This survey will again ask subjects about their quality of life.

Experimentální: ED-to-home care transition intervention
The ED-to-home care transition intervention is a coaching intervention. It is a 4-week program that uses an Area Agency on Aging healthcare coach to conduct a home visit and at least 3 follow-up phone calls to help patients develop the skills needed for self-management and to communicate with healthcare providers.
The Area Agency on Aging coach's role is to build self-management capabilities for the patient and their caregiver. During each contact, the coach reviews the four components of the Care Transition Intervention: 1: Follow-up Medical Visit. 2: Knowledge of Red Flag Symptoms. 3: Medication Reconciliation. 4: The Personal Health Record (PHR). The coach assists patients use the PHR to document and maintain vital information and to communicate with providers.

Časové okno
Change in Physical Function Between Baseline and 60 Days Post-ED Visit
Časové okno: Baseline up to 60 days after index ED Visit
PROMIS Physical Function instruments measure self-reported capability. Each of 7-items in the physical function instrument used in this study has five response items ranging in value from one to five. Thus, the minimum score for the Physical Function Instrument used is 7 and the maximum score is 35. The raw score is translated to a T-score using PROMIS conversion tables. The T-score rescales the raw score into a standardized score with a mean of 50 and standard deviation of 10. A higher PROMIS T-score represents more of the concept being measured. For positively-worded concepts like Physical Function, a T-score of 60 is one SD better than average. A Physical Function T-score of 40 is one SD worse than average. Change in Physical Function is the difference between baseline and 60 day T-score.
Baseline up to 60 days after index ED Visit
Change in Anxiety Between Baseline and 60 Days Post-ED Visit
Časové okno: Baseline up to 60 days after index ED Visit
PROMIS Anxiety instruments measure self-reported fear, anxious misery, and hyperarousal. Each of 8-items in the Anxiety Instrument used in this study has five response items ranging in value from one to five. Thus, the minimum score for the Anxiety Instrument used is 8 and the maximum score is 40. The raw score is translated to a T-score using PROMIS conversion tables. The T-score rescales the raw score into a standardized score with a mean of 50 and standard deviation of 10. A higher PROMIS T-score represents more of the concept being measured. For negatively-worded concepts like Anxiety, a T-score of 60 is one SD worse than average and an Anxiety T-score of 40 is one SD better than average.
Baseline up to 60 days after index ED Visit
Change in Informational Support Between Baseline and 60 Days Post-ED Visit
Časové okno: Baseline up to 60 days after index ED Visit
PROMIS Informational Support instruments measure perceived availability of helpful information or advice. Each of 5-items in the Informational Support Instrument used in this study has five response items ranging in value from one to five. Thus, the minimum score for the Informational Support Instrument used is 5 and the maximum score is 25. The raw score is translated to a T-score using PROMIS conversion tables. The T-score rescales the raw score into a standardized score with a mean of 50 and standard deviation of 10. A higher PROMIS T-score represents more of the concept being measured. For positively-worded concepts like Informational Support, a T-score of 60 is one SD better than average and a T-score of 40 is one SD worse than average.
