Palliative Care Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Impact of Telemedicine to Support Palliative Care Resident in Nursing Home: a Cluster Randomized Control Study.
Investigators hypothesize that telemedicine may be an effective tool to improve palliative care in nursing home, by providing on-site specialized and interprofessional consultation. The objective of this study is to assess the impact of telemedicine in decreasing the rate of hospitalization, compared with usual care, in nursing home resident with palliative care needs.
According to current statistics, approximately 12 % of all deaths in France occur in Nursing Home, with the number over 25% in USA. With the ageing of the population, this rate is expected to dramatically increase in the next years, to reach 40% in USA in 2020. Yet, there is some evidence that palliative care is often inadequate in Nursing Home: there is a difficulty to recognize residents who might benefit palliative care and their needs, an underassessment and under-treatment of pain and other end-of-life symptoms, and frequent burdensome treatments and hospitalizations. Several programs including palliative care consult service (with outside consultant), Nursing Home-based palliative care or Nursing Home-hospice partnerships, have succeeded in delivering high-quality palliative care in Nursing Home. But, to our knowledge, no studies examined the benefit of telemedicine for palliative care in nursing home. During a 6 month-inclusion period, residents with palliative care needs will be included in both arms. In the intervention group, Telemedicine consultations involving Nursing Home staff and the palliative and/or geriatric unit from the University Hospital, will be organized systematically at inclusion and during the follow-up if needed. In both groups, hospitalizations and emergency hospitalizations, quality of life of the resident, satisfaction of the nursing home staff and health costs will be recorded during 6 months. ;
