Official title
Development and Pilot Testing of an Intervention to Support Interhospital Transfer Decisions (SITe) Regarding Older Adults With Emergency General Surgery Diagnoses
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Every year, nearly 240,000 patients age 60 and older are transferred between acute care hospitals for nontraumatic surgical emergencies, and these patients experience worse outcomes than patients admitted directly from an emergency department within a given hospital. Care coordination for older patients with emergency general surgery (EGS) diagnoses suffers because conversations between referring and accepting providers regarding decisions to transfer are ineffective, incomplete, and inefficient. To standardize a method to support transfer decisions that is tailored to older adults within extant transfer processes, the team will (1) engage key stakeholders to develop the intervention to Support Interhospital Transfer Decisions (SITe) for older EGS patients by adapting an existing intervention for interhospital handoffs and (2) assess the acceptability of the SITe intervention, test the feasibility of study procedures, and explore efficacy outcomes for evaluation in a future, larger clinical trial.
