      PFC I-PASS Intervention for Enhanced Healthcare Communication

      Columbus, Ohio
      In 2014, a team of parents, nurses, and physicians created Patient and Family Centered I-PASS (PFC I-PASS), a bundle of communication interventions to improve the quality of information exchange between physicians, nurses, and families, and to better integrate families into all aspects of daily decision making in hospitals. PFC I-PASS changed how doctors and nurses talk to patients and families on rounds when they're admitted to the hospital. (Rounds are when a team of doctors visit patients every morning to do a checkup and make a plan for the day.) Rounds used to happen in a way that left out patients and families. Doctors talked at, not with patients, used big words and medical talk, and left nurses out. PFC I-PASS changed rounds by including families and nurses, using simple non-medical words, and talking in an organized way so nothing is left out. When PFC I-PASS was put in place in 7 hospitals, patients had fewer adverse events and better hospital experience. But it didn't focus on how to talk with patients with language barriers. This project builds upon upon PFC I-PASS to make it better and focus on the special needs of patients who speak languages other than English. This new intervention is known as PFC I-PASS+. PFC I-PASS+ includes all parts of PFC I-PASS plus having interpreters on and after rounds and training doctors about communication and cultural humility. The study team will now conduct a stepped-wedge cluster randomized trial to compare the effectiveness of PFC I-PASS+ and PFC I-PASS to usual care at 8 hospitals.

      End-of-Life Conversation Tools for Advance Care Planning

      Columbus, Ohio
      Compared to the general population, individuals from underserved communities are more likely to receive low quality end-of-life care and unwanted, costly and burdensome treatments due in part to a lack of advance care planning (ACP; the process of discussing wishes for end-of-life care with loved ones/clinicians and documenting them in advance directives). This study will use existing, trusted, and respected social networks to evaluate two conversation-based tools intended to engage underserved individuals in discussions about end-of-life issue and motivate them to carry out ACP behaviors. Through this study, investigators will learn how best to engage underserved populations in ACP so as to: 1) increase the likelihood that patients from underserved communities will receive high-quality end-of-life care; 2) address health disparities related to end-of-life treatments; and 3) reduce unnecessary suffering for patients and their families.

      Smoking Cessation Intervention for Tobacco-Related Cancer Prevention

      Columbus, Ohio
      This clinical trial evaluates the effect of message framing on smoking behaviors among lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer (LGBTQ+) young adults who use nicotine and/or tobacco. Tobacco regulation has contributed to a steady decline in tobacco products designed to be smoked (combustible), but there has been an increase in the use of new tobacco products, such as electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS). The use of more than one tobacco product (polytobacco) is high in LGBTQ+ populations. Both LGBTQ+ people and people who engage in polytobacco use are less likely to view tobacco as harmful, which may reinforce tobacco use. Message framing includes culturally targeted messages to communicate the absolute risks (AR) and relative risks (RR) of polytobacco use. Using message framing may increase quit rates or change smoking behaviors in LGBTQ+ young adults who use nicotine and/or tobacco products.

      Communication Tool Training for Kidney Failure

      Ann Arbor, Michigan
      The purpose of this study is to test the effect of the "Best Case/Worse Case" (BC/WC) communication tool on receipt of palliative care and intensity of treatment at the end of life, quality of life, and quality of communication for older patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) receiving outpatient care at ten nephrology clinics. The intervention was developed and tested with acute care surgical patients at the University of Wisconsin (UW) and is now being testing to see if the intervention will work in a different setting. The intervention will be tested with 320 older adults who have end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and are receiving care from a nephrologist enrolled in the study. Randomly assigned nephrologists within each site will receive the intervention (training to use the BC/WC tool) or to be in the waitlist control, meaning that they will not be offered BC/WC training until the end of the study, when all participants have been enrolled. Participants will be on follow up with surveys and chart review for up to two years after study enrollment. Caregivers will also be invited to participate and complete surveys.

      Science Communication Training for Vaccine Hesitancy

      Ann Arbor, Michigan
      Dime La VerDAD is an innovative social media capacity-building program that empowers promotores de salud to debunk vaccine misinformation through the use of personal narratives on social media. The core of the implementation strategy consists of augmenting training and self-efficacy for natural community champions, "promotores de salud" from the Hispanic community as trusted messengers to debunk vaccination misinformation. The study will leverage existing community relationships in Chicago and a first of its kind misinformation curriculum to debunk misinformation in communities served by participating promotores de salud. Dime La VerDAD (Verify, Debunk, and Disseminate) is an innovative social media capacity-building program based on theoretical frameworks related to health communication that empowers promotores de salud to debunk vaccine misinformation through the use of personal narratives on social media. This mixed methods study will use a rigorous stepped wedge design to 1) deliver a scalable program of science communicators using an adapted curriculum grounded in infodemiology, 2) evaluate how debunking misinformation is perceived on social media, and 3) discern how use of personal narratives to enhance science communication can lead to changes in opinions and behavior (vaccination rates) about COVID and influenza vaccines among Chicago's predominantly Hispanic communities.

      Personalized Information for Health Care Delivery

      Ann Arbor, Michigan
      Expanded availability of virtual care encounters in Primary Care provides new opportunities to improve Veterans' outcomes by aligning encounter modalities with their needs and preferences. Yet, Veterans and their Primary Care physicians (PCPs) lack personalized information about the benefits and costs of different Primary Care modalities that is needed to maximize the value of Primary Care encounters. To address this problem, in this study the investigators will use surveys and interviews to identify what Veterans and PCPs perceive to be the benefits and optimal uses of different Primary Care encounter modalities. They will then supplement their existing system for communicating encounter costs to Veterans and PCPs with new interactive messaging about benefits and optimal uses of different encounter modalities. Finally, this novel Advancing Decisions about Virtual Service Encounters (ADViSE) intervention will be optimized through user-centered refinement before evaluating its effects on Veteran-centered outcomes, use of virtual care, and intermediate health outcomes in a randomized controlled trial (RCT).

      "I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer three months ago, metastatic to my liver, and I have been receiving and responding well to chemotherapy. My blood work revealed that my tumor markers have gone from 2600 in the beginning to 173 as of now, even with the delay in treatment, they are not going up. CT Scans reveal they have been shrinking as well. However, chemo is seriously deteriorating my body. I have 4 more treatments to go in this 12 treatment cycle. I am just interested in learning about my other options, if any are available to me."

      Pancreatic Cancer PatientAge: 40

      "I have dealt with voice and vocal fold issues related to paralysis for over 12 years. This problem has negatively impacted virtually every facet of my life. I am an otherwise healthy 48 year old married father of 3 living. My youngest daughter is 12 and has never heard my real voice. I am now having breathing issues related to the paralysis as well as trouble swallowing some liquids. In my research I have seen some recent trials focused on helping people like me."

      Brain Stimulation for Stroke and Aphasia

      Ann Arbor, Michigan
      The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if electrical brain stimulation applied to the front parts of the brain can help people who have had a stroke improve their fatigue, language, and attention. The main question it aims to answer is: * Does transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) administered to the pre-frontal areas of the brain improve post-stroke fatigue and aphasia? * What kinds of participant characteristics are associated with better improvement of post-stroke fatigue and aphasia? Researchers will compare active electrical stimulation to sham stimulation to see if the active stimulation does a better job at reducing fatigue and language deficits after stroke. Participants will be asked to complete fatigue, language, and cognitive testing before and after receiving 10 sessions of tDCS plus speech and language therapy.

      Epilepsy Visit Planner for Epilepsy

      Ann Arbor, Michigan
      The purpose of this project is to conduct a trial to assess whether patients that receive a tablet-based waiting room priority communication tool (the "Epilepsy Visit Planner") have improved outcomes compared to patients that do not receive the tool. The project's hypotheses are: * Patients that receive the Epilepsy Visit Planner will have improved patient-provider communication compared to the non-planner group. * Patients that receive the Epilepsy Visit Planner will have improved quality of life scores. * The Epilepsy Visit Planner will score highly on process measures of feasibility and acceptability, demonstrating suitability for future larger scale study. Additionally, there is a related survey project that is not part of the clinical trial and will not be included in this registration information.

      Bonding Bundle for Physician-Patient Relationships

      Ann Arbor, Michigan
      The goal of this clinical trial is to learn more about the interaction between a patient in the hospital and their treating doctor. A good relationship between patients and their doctors can help improve patient care. Doctors will be asked to use strategies to improve their interactions with patients in the hospital. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Will using the intervention strategies improve doctors' empathy towards their patients? * Will using the intervention strategies lead to improved scores in patient views of doctors' empathy? There will be 2 study arms. One group of doctors will be asked to use the intervention strategies. The other group of doctors will provide care as they would normally. Researchers will compare the doctors in the intervention arm to those in the control arm. Doctors are the primary subjects for this study. The doctors in both study arms will be asked to do the following: 1. Allow study staff to observe the interaction between them and their patients. 2. Complete a brief survey at the end of their 2-week work rotation. Doctors who are in the intervention arm will be asked to use suggested strategies when visiting with patients in the hospital. Patients are secondary subjects for this study. Patients of participating doctors may be asked to do the following: 1. Allow study staff to observe the interaction between them and their doctors. 2. Complete a brief survey after meeting with their doctor.

      Integrated Supportive and Palliative Care for Critical Illness

      Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
      The National Academy of Medicine and the National Institutes of Health have called for urgent action to improve the care delivered to the nearly 1,000,000 older Americans who die in intensive care units (ICUs) annually, or survive with substantial impairments. These patients often die with distressing symptoms and may receive more invasive, life-prolonging treatment than they would choose for themselves. Moreover, their family members acting as surrogate decision makers often experience lasting psychological distress from the ICU experience. The investigators will conduct a randomized trial among 500 patients and 750 surrogates and up to 150 clinicians to determine whether early integration of specialty palliative care with standard critical care can improve outcomes for critically ill older patients at high risk of death or severe functional impairments and their family members.

      Informational Meetings for Cancer Care Coordination

      Indianapolis, Indiana
      This prospective cluster-randomized trial examines the efficacy of a novel communication intervention delivered by trained physician and nurse dyads to parents of children with cancer within the clinicians' practice, to foster alignment of the goals of treatment. The investigators hypothesize that goal alignment will improve quality of life outcomes, in particular for those patients who reach end of life. Findings from the proposed research will provide essential information to promote communication practice standards that can be rapidly translated into practice to improve outcomes for children, particularly those who reach end of life, and parents.

      MyPath Decision Support Tool for Reproductive Health

      Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
      The investigators have developed a web-based decision support tool to help women Veterans get the information and care they need to achieve their reproductive goals, whether that includes optimizing their health before desired pregnancies or birth control to avoid unwanted pregnancies. The study will test the effect of sending a weblink to the decision tool to women Veterans prior to primary care visits at the VA. Half of participants will be sent a weblink before their appointment, and half will not be sent the link. The investigators hypothesize that participants who are sent the link will be more likely to report patient-centered discussions of their reproductive needs at visits, feel confident in communicating with their health care providers, have accurate knowledge about reproductive health, and choose birth control methods that best fit their preferences and needs.

      Vaccine Counseling Training for Improving Vaccination Rates

      Royal Oak, Michigan
      Unfortunately, only 40% of US pediatric residency programs reported in a survey that vaccine safety and counseling training is provided to residents. The success of a residency curriculum focused on communication strategies with patients hesitant to receive the influenza vaccine has been demonstrated, finding a decreased rate of vaccination refusal in the post curricular period. In a recent 2020 study, it demonstrated the positive impact of an online vaccine curriculum on resident vaccine knowledge and self-reported confidence in counseling vaccine hesitant patients. Providers have the potential to impact a substantial pediatric patient population. The outpatient clinics where the residents included in this study care for patients had 9942 pediatric visits in 2021. Each visit is an opportunity to talk with families about vaccines, address concerns and to administer vaccines when needed. The hypothesize is that interactive educational interventions using the online training modules combined with the standardized patient encounters will increase resident vaccine knowledge and confidence, and enhance communication and counseling skills, thereby improving vaccination rates of Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), Influenza, Measles/Mumps/Rubella (MMR) and Coronavirus (COVID-19) in the Beaumont residency clinics.

      Screening Messages for Colorectal Cancer

      Flint, Michigan
      The goal of this study is to improve use of colorectal cancer screening among screening eligible African Americans who are served by Federally Qualified Health Centers in Michigan. The main questions it aims to answer are: * To what extent to individual prefer and select to complete screening with colonoscopy versus stool-based (FIT Kit or sDNA) options? * Can full completion of (i.e. follow-through with) screening with a selected modality be enhanced by delivery of a culturally targeted intervention? Participants will learn about colonoscopy, FIT Kit and sDNA as recommended and widely used screening options. Participants will select a modality to complete their own screening with. Participants will then be randomized to one of three arms (usual care, standard intervention, culturally targeted intervention). Researchers will compare the extent to which intervention arms enhance completion rates across each of the three screening modalities.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      How much do Communication clinical trials pay?

      Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

      How do Communication clinical trials work?

      After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Communication trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Communication is 12 months.

      How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

      Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

      What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

      The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

      Do I need to be insured to participate in a Communication medical study?

      Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

      What are the newest Communication clinical trials?

      Most recently, we added Personalized Information for Health Care Delivery, Early Intervention Approaches for Developmental Delay and Communication Skills Training for Kidney Transplant to the Power online platform.
