Comparison of a Web-based Advance Directive to a Standard Advance Directive

Thoracic Cancer Clinical Trial

Official title:
Comparison of a Web-based Advance Directive to a Standard Advance Directive: Randomized Evaluation

Clinical Trial Summary

This study will compare a web-based advance directive to a standard advance directive.

Clinical Trial Description

Patients with GI and thoracic malignancies will be randomized to either a standard paper advance directive or the web advance directive (Ourcarewishes.org). Patients will be approached in the Cancer Center and provided the AD information to complete on their own. They will complete a survey at enrollment and a follow up survey administered by email. The primary endpoint will be proportion with new documentation in the EHR at 8 weeks. Second endpoints will include the change in satisfaction with end-of-life plans, AD acceptability, self-reported rates of completion, self-reported rate of sharing with their preferred surrogate decision-maker, proportion with new documentation of preferred decision-maker in the chart, and qualitative feedback. Patients in both groups will receive follow up reminder emails encouraging them to complete the advance directive. ;
