Patient-Reported Outcomes-Based Palliative and Hospice Care Practice: A Usability Study

6. Juni 2013 aktualisiert von: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center

A Usability Study of Patient-Reported Outcomes (PRO)-Based Palliative and Hospice Care Practice: Integrating PROs and Decision Support Into an Electronic Record

The goal of this research study is to learn if palliative care patients or caregivers, and palliative care physicians or nurses can use a computer program designed to provide information about the symptoms and overall health of cancer patients.

Studienübersicht

Detaillierte Beschreibung

The Patient-Reported Outcomes (PRO) Computer System:

The PRO computer system used in this study has been designed to help doctors and nurses check the symptoms and overall health status of patients with cancer by reviewing the computer entries of patients and caregivers. The system has also been designed to help doctors and nurses make decisions about how to care for patients based on the computer entries.

Questionnaire and Review Session:

If you agree to take part in this study, you will have an questionnaire and review session at the Palliative Care outpatient clinic. The session will be conducted by a research staff member, but the study chair and/or other study staff members may also attend the session. The questionnaire and review session will have 3 steps, which are described below:

  • If you are a patient receiving palliative care, you will use the PRO computer system to complete 2 questionnaires about any symptoms you may be experiencing and your overall health. If you are a caregiver for someone who is receiving palliative care, you will use the PRO computer system to complete 2 questionnaires about any symptoms that the patient you are caring for may be experiencing and their overall health. The study staff will instruct you on how to use the PRO computer system.
  • If you are a physician or nurse, you will use the PRO computer system to complete 4 questionnaires about the symptoms and overall health of patients who are receiving palliative care. The study staff will instruct you on how to use the PRO computer system.
  • You will then look at the results of the questionnaires you have completed, which will be shown to you in both number and graph form. You will also be shown other features and potential uses of the PRO computer system.
  • Last, you will be asked about how easily you were able to use the computer system. You will also be asked about any changes you think could make the program easier to use.

The questionnaire and review session should take about 30 minutes to complete.

Study Data:

Your responses to the questionnaires will be destroyed after the questionnaire and review session. The responses you give when asked about the use of the PRO computer system will be kept after the questionnaire and review session. Only the study staff will have access to your responses. However, your responses will be coded with a study ID number, not by your name. Your saved responses will be stored in password-protected files that are available only to the study staff for 3 years.

Length of Study:

Your participation in this study will be over after you complete the questionnaire and review session.

This is an investigational study.

Up to 9 patients and 9 caregivers will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at M. D. Anderson.

Up to 9 physicians and nurses (4-5 of each) will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at M. D. Anderson.
