Clinical Trial Summary

This study occurs in two phases. Phase 1 involves initial item development and measurement validation of a new tool for identifying hospitalized patients at high risk for preventable readmission. Primary tasks include item construction and content validation, data collection, analysis, and instrument refinement. Phase 2 involves administering the refined instrument to a new group of patients to determine final item content for the instrument, its factor structure, and its predictive validity.


Description:

Participants will complete the instrument on an electronic device provided by research staff in the hospital room. If an individual is unable to complete the instrument, the participant may have another individual input answers on the electronic device. Hospitalized patients (n = 1240: 620 in Phase 1 and 620 in Phase 2) with a variety of chronic diseases will be recruited into the study. Study coordinators will recruit participants with the following diagnoses: heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, acute myocardial infarction, coronary artery bypass graft, pneumonia, total knee or hip replacement, and stroke. These diagnoses were chosen because of the frequency with which patients are readmitted after discharge.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Social Determinant Survey Responses An Investigator developed measurement instrument (survey) will be used to gather participant self reported responses to questions regarding spirituality, nutrition, sleep, activity level, interpersonal relationships, home environment and access to transportation. Participants will be provided a five point Likert Scale to express agreement or disagreement with the questions. 24 Months
Secondary Readmission Status Data extraction from each participant's medical record will be used to determine the number of readmissions within 120 days post discharge. 24 Months
