Official title
Enhancing Caregiver Empathy by Empowering Patients to Discuss Their Values: A Cluster Randomized Control Trial (ENHANCE)
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The aim of the ENHANCE study was to determine if an intervention focused on empowering medical inpatients to discuss their values and interests with their Cleveland Clinic Caregivers leads to greater caregiver empathy, improved patient experience, and improved Caregiver experience. The intervention patient participants received a poster where they were able to share things about themselves that they wanted their Caregivers to know. These posters were hung on the wall behind their bed. A few days later, they were given a survey to assess their experiences in the hospital. On the control floors, medicine patients were recruited a few days into their admission and administered a survey. CCF Caregivers completed surveys before the intervention period and afterward. Data collection is complete, data analysis is largely finished and a manuscript is in progress. 320 patients and 219 CCF Caregivers participated in the study.
