Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether a new implementation package can help older adults prepare for major surgery. The main question it aims to answer is: Can the implementation package help give more people access to this resource? Participants will be in two groups: older adults who are planning a major surgery and their medical and surgical healthcare providers. The results will be compared to a historic baseline.


Clinical Trial Description

The goal of this clinical trial is to test a new implementation package, which will be applied at the clinic-level, to see whether it can help more older adults prepare for major surgery. The study will evaluate whether the implementation package (1) improves the number of older adults who get a full "comprehensive geriatric assessment" (CGA) before surgery compared to the number of older adults who would be eligible for it, also called "reach"; and (2) increases the use of CGA by the medical and surgical providers who are taking care of these older adults, also called "adoption". Participants will be in two groups: older adults who are planning a major surgery and their medical and surgical healthcare providers. Participants will be recruited from two surgery clinics. The implementation package will include a set of strategies that can be applied at the system level to improve reach and adoption of the CGA. The results will be compared to a historic baseline. Findings from this study will help the lead researcher design a larger trial that will test both the implementation (or how something is done) at the same time as it tests the effectiveness (how well it works). ;
