Clinical Trial Summary

This study evaluates the effectiveness of a mobile health education module, in increasing hospitalized patients' understanding of their chronic illness, and in reducing 30-day hospital readmission rates. Half of the participants will receive the educational module intervention in addition to standard education, the other half will receive hospital standard practice education only.


Description:

Chronic disease is the leading cause of death and disability, costing the US healthcare system 1 trillion dollars annually. Successful management of these conditions critically requires patient understanding and engagement. Patients are advised to adhere to medications, redesign lifestyles, and navigate the health care system. Most of these care plan items require careful instruction and confirmation of shared understanding.

Mobile health technology has the potential to assist greatly with patient education, especially for hospitalized patients. This prospective study evaluates a specific mobile technology intervention, an educational and emotionally-engaging video patients watch while admitted for a complication related to one of these chronic diseases: Heart Failure, Diabetes, COPD, Asthma, Cirrhosis, Atrial Fibrillation, Hypertension.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary 30-Day hospital readmission rate In this study, 30-Day hospital readmission rate is defined as the ratio of patients discharged from LAC+USC Medical Center who are readmitted to either LAC+USC Medical Center or one of three other LA County Department of Health Services (DHS) hospitals. (These are Olive View Medical Center, Rancho Los Amigos Hospital, and Harbor-UCLA Medical Center). This rate can be calculated readily by either of two different means: programmed data extraction from the common electronic health record (there is a Power Insight-Cerner report that does this); or blinded, manual chart review. 9 months (270 days)
Primary Self-reported quality of life: Short Form (36) Health Survey As part of the Medical Outcomes Study (MOS), a multi-year, multi-site study to explain variations in patient outcomes, RAND developed the 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36). SF-36 is a set of generic, coherent, and easily administered quality-of-life measures. These measures rely upon patient self-reporting and are now widely utilized by managed care organizations and by Medicare for routine monitoring and assessment of care outcomes in adult patients.The SF-36 consists of eight scaled scores, which are the weighted sums of the questions in their section. Each scale is directly transformed into a 0-100 scale on the assumption that each question carries equal weight. The lower the score the more disability. The higher the score the less disability i.e., a score of zero is equivalent to maximum disability and a score of 100 is equivalent to no disability. Survey is attached to this submission. 9 months (270 days)
Primary Patient understanding of chronic disease: 8-item disease focused survey. This study's authors have developed an 8-item survey, each question with equal rate, designed to measure patients' understanding of several key concepts related to their diagnosis and management. The higher the score, the better the presumed understanding. Survey for heart failure is attached to this submission. 9 months (270 days)
Primary Patient satisfaction with treatment: Client Satisfaction Questionnaire (CSQ-8) The CSQ-8 is an 8-item, easily scored and administered measurement that is designed to measure client satisfaction with services. The items for the CSQ-8 were selected on the basis of ratings by mental health professionals of a number of items that could be related to client satisfaction and by subsequent factor analysis. The CSQ-8 is unidimensional, yielding a homogeneous estimate of general satisfaction with services. The higher the score, the better the presumed patient satisfaction with services. Survey is attached to this submission. 9 months (270 days)
