Interventions

  • Implementation Package for CGA — OTHER
    The Implementation Package will include streamlined referral processes and education for surgeons and staff about the new processes. These strategies will be applied after surgery is ordered to help increase the reach and adoption of the CGA.
  • Routine Clinical Care — OTHER
    Routine care may or may not include the use of the CGA before surgery. The use of CGA in clinical care is up to the medical and surgical healthcare providers.

Study Details

The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether a new implementation package can help older adults prepare for major surgery. The main question it aims to answer is: Can the implementation package help give more people access to this resource? Participants will be in two groups: older adults who are planning a major surgery and their medical and surgical healthcare providers. The results will be compared to a historic baseline.

Arms

  • Experimental: Post Implementation
    Participants will be recruited from surgery clinics in the post-implementation group. They will go through a streamlined referral process as part of an implementation package for CGA before surgery. The control group will be historic baseline data. That is, older surgical patients who were treated Pre-Implementation. These patients would have received standard, routine clinical care without the use of the implementation package.

Primary Outcome Measure

Number of patients referred divided by number of eligible patients [ Time Frame: 6 and 12 months after implementation ]
