만성 간질환 환자를 위한 퇴원 후 과도기적 치료의 시도 (TLC)
만성 간 질환 환자를 위한 퇴원 후 전환 관리의 무작위 시험
Patients with complications of advanced liver disease often have difficulties after hospital discharge that result in early hospital readmission. Poor outcomes for these patients during this transitional time could be improved through the use of innovative transitional care models. This proposal aims to examine the effect of a transitional care model, The Transitional Liver Clinic (TLC), in reducing hospital re-admissions, improving quality of life, and improving patient experience.

상세 설명
This study is a stepped-wedge randomized trial of 1,000 patients with advanced liver disease at four high-volume centers over 45 months (250 participants/site; <6 participants/site/month) to evaluate the efficacy of the Transitional Liver Clinic (TLC) compared to control.
In the stepped-wedge design, all sites provide usual care (control) during the initial 9-month enrollment interval. At each subsequent 9-month interval, one site is randomized via a computer-generated randomization scheme to crossover to implement the TLC, which will continue through the final interval where all sites will have implemented the TLC.
All sites enroll for the entire 45 months and thus contribute patients to both the control and TLC groups. There are an equal number of TLC and control intervals; thus approximately 500 patients will be in each group. Participant follow-up will occur by telephone at 30 and 90 days after discharge.

간섭 없음: Control group
Patients in the usual care arm will receive standard follow-up care from their usual providers based on recommendations made by inpatient providers at the time of discharge from the hospital. |

활성 비교기: Transitional Liver Clinic (TLC)
Enrolled patients discharged during the experimental TLC intervention implementation period will receive a phone call from TLC staff within 2 business days of discharge followed by an in-person or video telehealth clinic visit with a hepatology APP within 14 days of discharge. TLC staff will provide additional care based on individual patient needs during the 30-day transitional period. |
Participants in this intervention receive additional attention from their Hepatology providers in terms of an additional call/telemedicine visit and more specific/additional attention from their Hepatology APP (advanced practice provider) based on individual patient needs |

30-day hospital readmissions for patients hospitalized with complications of advanced liver disease
기간: 30 days after discharge of initial hospitalization at which the participant was enrolled in the study.
|
The primary outcome, 30-day hospital readmission, is publicly reported by CMS, and is the benchmark measure in the Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program. It is therefore the most appropriate primary outcome. |
30 days after discharge of initial hospitalization at which the participant was enrolled in the study.

|
Quality of life for patients hospitalized with complications of advanced liver disease via Promis 29+2 survey
기간: 30 days after discharge of initial hospitalization at which the participant was enrolled in the study.
|
This measure includes 4 items in each of 7 health domains (physical function, anxiety, depression, fatigue, sleep disturbance, ability to participate in social roles and activities, and pain interference) as well as a single item assessing pain intensity. Each domain is scored using a T-score metric in which 50 corresponds to the average for the US population with a standard deviation of 10, and a higher T-score represents more of the concept being measured. For example, higher fatigue scores indicate more fatigue (worse quality of life), while higher physical function scores represent better physical function (better quality of life). |

Patient satisfaction for patients hospitalized with complications of advanced liver disease via the PSQ 18 questionnaire
기간: 30 days after discharge of initial hospitalization at which the participant was enrolled in the study
|
The PSQ-18 consists of 18 items examining 7 dimensions of satisfaction with medical care: general satisfaction, technical quality, interpersonal manner, communication, financial aspects, time spent with doctor, and accessibility and convenience. Each item is scored with a 1 to 5 Likert scale and the individual item scores are averaged, with higher scores reflecting higher satisfaction. |
