Official title
The Hospice Advanced Dementia Symptom Management and Quality of Life Trial (HAS-QOL) Stepped Wedge Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The Aliviado Dementia Care Program (formerly known as the Dementia Symptom Management at Home Program, or DSM-H) was developed to implement dementia friendly care for persons with Dementia and their caregivers living in the community. Aliviado Dementia Care-Hospice Edition is a systems level quality assurance performance improvement program that includes interdisciplinary team training, validated assessment instruments, patient-centered care plans, treatment algorithms for behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia and terminal delirium, and caregiver education pamphlets. Utilizing the R61/R33 mechanism, the Aliviado Dementia Care-Hospice Edition was successfully implemented in 2 sequential pilot trials in the hospice setting in 2019 (R61 phase). Following the successful pilot trials and the attainment of the R61 milestones, the investigators now seek to test the effectiveness of Aliviado Dementia Care-Hospice Edition in a pragmatic RCT in 25 hospice agencies across the nation (R33 phase) on its ability to reduce antipsychotic use (primary outcome) and effect quality (secondary and exploratory outcomes).
