Interventions
- Structured Agenda-Setting Tool — OTHERWe are testing a novel clinical visit agenda-setting intervention developed through participatory research methods for the pediatric inpatient environment. This structured agenda-setting (SAS) intervention will be co-designed to include structured discussion topic areas with the option for patients (when appropriate) and their care partners to consider and indicate their priority topic areas and take notes before, during, and after a clinical visit.
Study Details
The goal of this open pilot is to co-design and test a clinical agenda-setting intervention in the inpatient pediatric environment. We pilot a co-designed structured agenda-setting intervention (SAS) for multi-family meetings about children with medical complexity. Our open pilot will evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of using the SAS during routine multidisciplinary family meetings (MFM) at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center. By doing an open pilot, researchers will learn if the agenda-setting instrument and implementation process are feasible and acceptable to patients, their care partner and their clinicians.
