Randomized Evaluation of Default Access to Palliative Services (REDAPS)

10 september 2020 bijgewerkt door: University of Pennsylvania

Default Palliative Care Consultation for Seriously Ill Hospitalized Patients

This is a large pragmatic, randomized controlled trial to test the real-world effectiveness of inpatient palliative care consultative services in improving a number of patient- and family-centered processes and outcomes of care among seriously ill hospitalized patients. The investigators hypothesize that improved patient-centered outcomes can be achieved without higher costs by simply changing the default option for inpatient palliative care consultation for eligible patients from an opt-in to an opt-out system. To test this hypothesis the investigators will conduct a clinical trial at 11 hospitals using the same electronic health record within Ascension Health, the largest non-profit health system in the U.S.

Gedetailleerde beschrijving

The REDAPS trial aims to generate large-scale, experimental evidence regarding the real-world effectiveness of inpatient palliative consultative services (IPCS) and to test the incremental effectiveness and costs of a simple, scalable method to increase IPCS utilization among properly selected patients. The REDAPS trial will also compare the effectiveness of different palliative care team structures and services and identify patient subgroups most likely to benefit from IPCS. To achieve these goals, the investigators will conduct a clinical trial at 11 Ascension Health hospitals using the same electronic health record. Participating hospitals first contribute a minimum of 4 months of data under the control paradigm (opt-in model), where physicians must identify patients who may benefit from palliative care consultation and actively order such services. Then, using a stepped-wedge design, the hospitals are randomly assigned to begin the intervention in intervals spaced approximately 2.7 months apart. During the intervention, patients meeting consensus criteria for eligibility for palliative care consultation are identified by the electronic health record, a consultation is ordered by default, physicians may cancel the order after being alerted to it, and patients or family members may decline such services. By the end of the trial, all hospitals will have utilized the intervention paradigm of palliative care consultation for at least 4 months. The REDAPS trial will compare outcomes (clinical, economic, and process measures) before and after implementation within hospitals, as well as comparisons among hospitals at given time points.

Wapens en interventies

Deelnemersgroep / Arm
Interventie / Behandeling
Actieve vergelijker: Default ordering of palliative consult
Hospitals randomized to the intervention arm will adopt a system whereby eligible patients are identified by the electronic health record, a consultation is ordered by default, and physicians may cancel the order after being alerted to it, and patients or family members may decline such services.
Geen tussenkomst: Usual care
There will be no trial-driven approach to care. Inpatient palliative care consultative services will be actively requested by physicians as in usual care.
