Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this VA Innovation Seed project is to test the best approach for the delivery, feasibility, and usability of a patient-centered CKD-QPS to facilitate better Veteran understanding and engagement in their CKD-care in nephrology clinics at two geographically distinct VA hospitals (Chicago and Dallas) through on-going user feedback in real time.


Description:

The goal of this VA Innovation Seed project is to test the best approach for the delivery, feasibility, and usability of a patient-centered CKD-QPS to facilitate better Veteran understanding and engagement in their CKD-care in nephrology clinics at two geographically distinct VA hospitals (Chicago and Dallas) through on-going user feedback in real time. Specifically, the pilot goals are to: 1. Test the process of delivering the CKD-QPS into clinical workflow to optimize patient and provider use of the QPS. We will rely on user (patient and provider) feedback about the feasibility of using the QPS in a real world VA environment (e.g., time required for visits using the QPS, impact on clinical workflow, patient and providers' preferences for delivering the QPS to Veterans with CKD) to adjust delivery throughout the project period. 2. Obtain continuous provider and patient feedback during the project period about QPS feasibility, use, patient participation, and provider information-giving and encouragement of question-asking during outpatient clinic visits. 3. Test how well iterative adjustments to delivery can help improve CKD-QPS patient-reported outcome measures (e.g., satisfaction with provider). The multi-site study will take place at Hines, VA, and at VA North Texas Health System, in Dallas, TX. The intervention entails providing the CKD-Question Prompt Sheet to patients to use during patient-nephrologist (or Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant) clinic visits. The CKD-QPS is a 31-item list of questions about treatment options for CKD. The QPS is designed to empower patients to ask questions by reminding them of questions that they may consider asking. Data collection entails pre-post clinic visit surveys among CKD patients, a post-clinic interview with CKD patients and nephrologists (separately), and audio-recording the clinic visit. The knowledge gained from this study may improve other patients' satisfaction with care and communication with providers.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Perceived efficacy in patient-physician interaction (PEPPI) This measure, the full name of which is provided above, assesses patients' perceived self-efficacy or confidence in interacting with physicians. It includes 5 items, each of which is anchored by 1 (not at all confident) and 5 (very confident). Scores range from 5 to 25, which higher scores indicating greater confidence. up to 2 days
Secondary # Question Prompt Sheet (QPS) Questions Asked Number of questions from the QPS that were asked during the clinic encounter. 1 day
Secondary Short-form patient satisfaction questionnaire (PSQ-18) This measure assesses patients' perceptions of satisfaction in interacting with healthcare providers.
It includes 18 items, each of which is anchored by 1 (strongly agree) and 5 (strongly disagree). Scores range from 18 to 90, which lower scores indicating greater satisfaction with medical care.
up to 2 days
