NCT ID: NCT06329557 Enrolling by invitation - Clinical trials for Patient Satisfaction

Optimizing the Patient Experience Through Provider Coaching or Communication Intervention

Start date: March 8, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Hypothesis: Clinicians who receive patient experience coaching or communication classes have improved patient satisfaction scores and improved clinician satisfaction.

NCT ID: NCT06042621 Enrolling by invitation - Clinical trials for Mechanical Ventilation

A Study of Communication Between Clinicians, Patients, and Families in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU)

TIME
Start date: January 17, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to investigate a specific approach to patient care called a time-limited trial (TLT). This approach is sometimes used for people who develop critical illness and are cared for in an intensive care unit (ICU). A time-limited trial is a plan made together by medical teams, patients with critical illness (if they can take part), and their families or other important people helping to make their healthcare decisions. A time-limited trial starts with a discussion of the patient's goals and wishes. Then, a plan is made to use ICU treatments for a set period of time to give the patient the chance to recover. After this time, the patient's response to treatment will be reviewed to help guide what to do next. Medical teams consider this kind of plan when it is not clear if a patient can recover to a quality of life that is acceptable to him or her. With a time-limited trial, patients, families, and medical teams experience this uncertainty together. The main goal of this study is to find the best way to use TLTs for patients in the ICU who have trouble breathing and need mechanical ventilation to help them breathe. The hypothesis is that optimal time-limited trial delivery will reduce the time patients with acute respiratory failure spend in the ICU and will improve the intensive care unit experiences for their families and clinicians.

NCT ID: NCT06008418 Enrolling by invitation - Palliative Care Clinical Trials

Using Mixed-methods Approach to Explore Health Communication in Hospice Out-Patient Settings

Start date: August 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This research project aims to investigate health communication in hospice outpatient settings and translate findings into practice by designing and testing a communication aid utilizing health information technology. The specific aims are to: (1) identify the attributes, antecedents, consequences, and implications of the concept of illness invalidation; (2) construct a theoretical framework to describe patient-healthcare provider communication; and (3) based on the theoretical framework, establish a tailored communication aid using health information technology; and investigate its effects on patient outcomes, including (a) satisfaction, (b) communication self-efficacy, (c) illness invalidation, (d) shared-decision making experience, (e) health-related quality of life, and (f) emergency room visits.

NCT ID: NCT05780918 Enrolling by invitation - Communication Clinical Trials

A Communication Tool to Improve Communication in the ICU

Start date: July 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of the Best Case/Worst Case-ICU communication tool on quality of communication, clinician moral distress, and ICU length of stay for older adults with serious traumatic injury. Investigators will follow an estimated 4500 patients aged 50 years and older who are in the ICU for 3 or more days and survey 1500 family members and up to 1600 clinicians from 8 sites nationwide.

NCT ID: NCT04801030 Enrolling by invitation - Covid19 Clinical Trials

COVID-19 Vaccine Hesitancy Among African Americans

Start date: May 20, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has created a "state of emergency" for African Americans in the US. Recent findings indicate 31% of adults self-reported "wait and see" of the COVID-19 vaccine, of which 16% were African American. This project seeks to test the feasibility and impact of a multi-layered, culturally-appropriate social marketing intervention targeting COVID-19 vaccine hesitant (VH) African Americans to increase vaccine confidence, uptake, and completion of multi-dose vaccine series in Nashville/Davidson County, Tennessee. This study's novelty lies in being the first to assess feasibility and preliminary efficacy of a multi-layered, culturally-appropriate social marketing intervention to promote COVID-19 vaccination among African Americans in TN. Clinical significance is increased vaccine uptake and decreased COVID-19 burden and disparities.

NCT ID: NCT04680858 Enrolling by invitation - Communication Clinical Trials

Impact of Digital Communication Assist Tools in Endoscopic Team Communication During COVID-19

EndoCom
Start date: July 1, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Team work is highly challenged by the COVID-19 pandemic. Necessary protective equipment as FFP-mask and face shields impair communication significantly.Objective of the study is to evalaute the impact of digital enhanced telecommunication in endoscopic procedures.

NCT ID: NCT04571749 Enrolling by invitation - Communication Clinical Trials

Handoffs and Transitions in Critical Care - Understanding Scalability

HATRICC-US
Start date: April 11, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The investigators will leverage implementation science and engineering to adapt, implement, and rigorously evaluate tailored postoperative handoff protocols and implementation strategies. In doing so, the investigators will develop a vital understanding of the factors needed for successful and sustained use of evidence-based interventions in acute care. This knowledge will inform approaches to bridge the evidence-to-practice gap that prevents effective interventions from realizing the promise of improved patient outcomes in acute care settings.
