Organizational Characteristics of Hospitals Meeting STRIDE Program Adoption Benchmarks to Support Mobility for Hospitalized Persons
There are few validated contextual measures predicting adoption of evidence-based programs. Variation in context at clinical sites can hamper dissemination. We examined organizational characteristics of Veterans Affairs hospitals implementing STRIDE, a hospital walking program, and characteristics' influences on program adoption. Using a parallel mixed-method design, we describe context and organizational characteristics by program adoption. Orga…
Diabetes distress in Veterans with type 2 diabetes mellitus
Diabetes distress (DD) is a negative psychosocial response to living with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We sought insight into Veterans' experiences with DD in the context of T2DM self-management. The four domains in the Diabetes Distress Scale (i.e. regimen, emotional, interpersonal, healthcare provider) informed the interview guide and analysis (structural coding using thematic analysis). The mean age of the cohort ( n = 36) was 59.1 years (…
Trends in Dialysis Industry Consolidation After Medicare Payment Reform, 2006-2016
In this cohort study of continental US Medicare-certified dialysis facilities, small-chain and independently owned facilities retained a declining share of the dialysis market. Further research should evaluate the effect of continued dialysis market consolidation on patient access, health care utilization, and clinical outcomes
Comparing Mortality of Peritoneal and Hemodialysis Patients in an Era of Medicare Payment Reform
BACKGROUND: Prior studies have shown peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients to have lower or equivalent mortality to patients who receive in-center hemodialysis (HD). Medicare's 2011 bundled dialysis prospective payment system encouraged expansion of home-based PD with unclear impacts on patient outcomes. This paper revisits the comparative risk of mortality between HD and PD among patients with incident end-stage kidney disease initiating dialysis in…
Heterogeneity of Treatment Effects Among Patients With Type 2 Diabetes and Elevated Body Mass Index in a Study Comparing Group Medical Visits Focused on Weight Management and Medication Intensificatio…
BACKGROUND: Illuminating heterogeneity of treatment effect (HTE) within trials is important for identifying target populations for implementation. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to examine HTE in a trial of group medical visits (GMVs) for patients with type 2 diabetes and elevated body mass index. RESEARCH DESIGN AND MEASURES: Participants (n=263) were randomized to GMV-based medication management plus low carbohydrate diet-focused weight m…
