Palliative Care and Advance Care Planning Intervention Fidelity Monitoring
Over the past decade, the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) funded multiple large-scale, comparative effectiveness clinical trials evaluating palliative care and advance care planning interventions. These are complex multicomponent interventions that need robust but flexible fidelity monitoring. Fidelity is necessary to maintain both internal and external validity within palliative care intervention research and to ultimately e…
Implementing Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute Stakeholder Engagement Principles in Models of Palliative Care Delivery and Advance Care Planning Research
BACKGROUND: Given the many challenges of conducting research that addresses the palliative and end-of-life care needs of patients with serious illnesses, stakeholder engagement starting from the moment of study conceptualization and design is critical to ensure successful participant recruitment, data collection, intervention delivery, data analysis, and dissemination. METHODS: Guided by a conceptual model published by the Patient-Centered Outcom…
Conducting Comparative Effectiveness, Multisite Palliative Care and Advance Care Planning Trials
The Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) funded multiple large-scale comparative effectiveness clinical trials evaluating palliative care (PC) and advance care planning (ACP) healthcare delivery models. This article provides an overview of the most common barriers our investigative teams encountered while implementing these trials and the strategies we utilized to overcome these challenges, with particular attention to identifying…
Implementation of Complex Interventions
BACKGROUND: Despite the well-documented risks to patient safety associated with transitions from one care setting to another, health care organizations struggle to identify which interventions to implement. Multiple strategies are often needed, and studying the effectiveness of these complex interventions is challenging. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to present lessons learned in implementing and evaluating complex transitional care …
Pragmatic Considerations in Incorporating Stakeholder Engagement Into a Palliative Care Transitions Study
BACKGROUND: Stakeholder involvement in health care research has been shown to improve research development, processes, and dissemination. The literature is developing on stakeholder engagement methods and preliminarily validated tools for evaluating stakeholder level of engagement have been proposed for specific stakeholder groups and settings. OBJECTIVES: This paper describes the methodology for engaging a Study Advisory Committee (SAC) in resea…
Opening Pandora’s Box
BACKGROUND: Measuring the effectiveness of transitional care interventions has historically relied on health care utilization as the primary outcome. Although the Care Transitions Measure was the first outcome measure specifically developed for transitional care, its applicability beyond the hospital-to-home transition is limited. There is a need for patient-centered outcome measures (PCOMs) to be developed for transitional care settings (ie, TC-…
HIV and STI Risk Behaviors, Knowledge, and Testing Among Female Adult Film Performers as Compared to Other California Women
Grudzen Et Al. Respond
We would like to thank Silvera et. al. for their thoughtful response to our research article. We agree that there appears to be a recent rise in the production of “bareback” pornography, and we are similarly concerned by the reemergence of intentional unsafe sexual practices by men who have sex with men (MSM) both in adult films and in the community. We would also like to emphasize the important difference between an individual who chooses to eng…
Condom Use and High-Risk Sexual Acts in Adult Films
Objectives. We compared the prevalence of condom use during a variety of sexual acts portrayed in adult films produced for heterosexual and homosexual audiences to assess compliance with state Occupational Health and Safety Administration regulations. Methods. We analyzed 50 heterosexual and 50 male homosexual films released between August 1, 2005, and July 31, 2006, randomly selected from the distributor of 85% of the heterosexual adult films re…
