Detaljeret beskrivelse

The team has developed a brief Patient Participation Aid (PPA) to promote patient health literacy and encourage women to be active in the decisions that are being made about their healthcare which will lead to their satisfaction with healthcare and improves their psychosocial well-being. The paper-based PPA uses adult learning principles to limit and sequence plain language messages that have been framed from a patient's perspective. The PPA uses theory-based design to increase patients' involvement in the medical visit by modeling - through text and images - how a patient can: 1) set the visit agenda, 2) formulate questions, and 3) assert personal preferences. The specific aims of this study are to: 1- Assess the effectiveness of the PPA to increase patient involvement during clinical encounters. 2- Evaluate the effectiveness of the PPA to improve patient psychosocial outcomes. 3- Explore if the effect of the PPA varies by patients' literacy skills. To achieve this aims, the investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the PPA among patients with a new diagnosis or progression of metastatic breast cancer at two cancer centers that serve diverse patient populations.

Våben og indgreb

Deltagergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandling
Eksperimentel: Intervention
Participants will begin with a pre-visit structured interview to determine emotional and physical well-being, anxiety, depression, and self-efficacy. Then they will be helped through the Patient-Participation Aid (PPA) by the research assistant (RA). Then they will meet with their doctor while the visit is video-recorded. After they will complete a post-visit interview to see if there were any health decisions made, patients level of involvement, and doctor communication. Follow up phone interviews will be conducted at 1 week and 3 months to assess patients self-reported changes in well-being, anxiety, depression, and decision regret.
The PPA consists of a folder that addresses the three behaviors we hope to influence: agenda setting, asking questions, and making preferences known. The information inside contains sample questions for each section, with room for the patient to write her own questions. Each section models behavior by giving context for the items and specific example questions. It also addresses barriers to understanding by indicating that it is acceptable to ask questions when something is not clear or terms are unfamiliar.
