TriangleNCT03154190 · STUDY IN CONTEXT
Health Care Coach Support in Reducing Acute Care Use and Cost in Patients With Cancer
Draft scope assessment: unclear. Attached because the study's own record describes locally advanced disease. The study was not selected for this indication by its sponsor, and its eligibility has not been reconciled against this page in full. Found by searching ClinicalTrials.gov for this cancer type, restricted to studies that have posted results to the registry. No FDA notice, FDA label or NCI summary held by this site cites this study. Because the search asked for posted results, studies without posted results were never looked for, so their absence from this page means nothing.

Linked outcomes
Mean emergency department visits for each patient will be abstracted by electronic medical record chart review for each patient at 6 months after enrollment. We will evaluate comparisons of mean numbers of emergency department visits between study arms.
Mean Hospitalization use for each patient will be abstracted by electronic medical record chart review for each patient at 6 months after enrollment. We will evaluate comparisons of mean numbers of hospitalizations between the two study arms.
Each patient will receive a satisfaction with decision-making survey (The Satisfaction with Decision Survey) at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months. Satisfaction with Decision was assessed using the Satisfaction with Decision scale, which measured rating of decision-making. Questions were assessed with responses on a scale of "strongly disagree," "disagree," "neither agree nor disagree," "agree," or "strongly agree." Results are expressed as proportion of participants who responded "strongly agree."
Each patient will receive a satisfaction with care survey (The Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems-G) at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months. Overall Health and Overall Mental or Emotional health was assessed using the Consumer Assessment of Health Care Providers and Systems-Clinician and Group Survey version 2.0 (cite) questions #26, which measured rating of overall health with responses, "excellent," "very good," "fair," or "poor." Questions were assessed with responses "never", "sometimes," "usually," or "always," or care rated as "worst," "fair," good", or "best." Results are expressed as proportion of participants who responded "always", or "best care."
Emergency Department use for each patient will be abstracted by electronic medical record chart review for each patient at 12 months after enrollment. We will evaluate comparisons of emergency department visits between study arms.
Number of people with Emergency Department use in the 30 days before death will be abstracted by electronic medical record chart review for each patient who has died. We will evaluate comparisons of the number of people with emergency department visits between study arms.
