Abstract

ObjectiveWe present the design and feasibility testing for the "Digital Drag and Drop Pillbox" (D-3 Pillbox), a skill-based educational approach that engages patients and providers, measures performance, and generates reports of medication management skills.MethodsA single-cohort convenience sample of patients hospitalized with heart failure was taught pill management skills using a tablet-based D-3 Pillbox. Medication reconciliation was conducted, and aptitude, performance (% completed), accuracy (% correct), and feasibility were measured.ResultsThe mean age of the sample (n = 25) was 59 (36-89) years, 50% were women, 62% were black, 46% were uninsured, 46% had seventh-grade education or lower, and 31% scored very low for health literacy. However, most reported that the D-3 Pillbox was easy to read (78%), easy to repeat-demonstrate (78%), and comfortable to use (tablet weight) (75%). Accurate medication recognition was achieved by discharge in 98%, but only 25% reported having a "good understanding of my responsibilities."ConclusionsThe D-3 Pillbox is a feasible approach for teaching medication management skills and can be used across clinical settings to reinforce skills and medication list accuracy.

Abstract

Aim: The purpose was to evaluate an innovative Prospective Hiring Equation to determine registered nurse hiring needs. Background: The American Organization for Nursing Leadership identifies human resource management as a competency for nurse managers, yet calculations to determine when and how many registered nurses to hire are not readily available. Methods: We implemented an educational intervention to teach nurse mangers the Prospective Hiring Equation. We evaluated the processes (adoption and confidence) and outcomes (vacancy rates) using a pre‐evaluation/postevaluation design in a single cohort of nurse managers (n = 9). We used a statistical process control chart to depict mean differences in vacancy rate at baseline and 6‐month postimplementation. Results: Participants (n = 9) were on average 43 years' old, female, and had 2.94 (SD = 2.66) years' of nurse manager experience. Following implementation of the intervention, the combined vacancy rates of the intensive care units improved by 11.8% (SD = 7), and use of agency nurses decreased by 42.5% (premedian = 7.2, interquartile ratio = 3.6, 10.8; postmedian = 1.8, interquartile ratio 0.9, 8.55). Conclusions: The Prospective Hiring Equation may be a useful tool to improve nurse managers human resource management competencies. Implications for Nursing Management: The Prospective Hiring Equation may help nurse managers improve accuracy when evaluating hiring needs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

137. Spirituality in Patients With Heart Failure

Author

Tobin, Rachel S., Cosiano, Michael F., O’Connor, Christopher M., Fiuzat, Mona, Granger, Bradi B., Rogers, Joseph G., Tulsky, James A., Steinhauser, Karen E., and Mentz, Robert J.

Abstract

With advances in heart failure (HF) treatment, patients are living longer, putting further emphasis on quality of life (QOL) and the role of palliative care principles in their care. Spirituality is a core domain of palliative care, best defined as a dynamic, multidimensional aspect of oneself for which 1 dimension is that of finding meaning and purpose. There are substantial data describing the role of spirituality in patients with cancer but a relative paucity of studies in HF. In this review article, we explore the current knowledge of spirituality in patients with HF; describe associations among spirituality, QOL, and HF outcomes; and propose clinical applications and future directions regarding spiritual care in this population. Studies suggest that spirituality serves as a potential target for palliative care interventions to improve QOL, caregiver support, and patient outcomes including rehospitalization and mortality. We suggest the development of a spirituality-screening tool, similar to the Patient Health Questionnaire-2 used to screen for depression, to identify patients with HF at risk for spiritual distress. Novel tools are soon to be validated by members of our group. Given spirituality in HF remains less well studied compared with other patient populations, further controlled trials and uniform measures of spirituality are needed to understand its impact better

138. Impact of an Implementation Science Study on Nursing Leader's Competencies: A Qualitative Study.

Author

Reynolds, Staci S., Woltz, Patricia, Neff, Janice, Elliott, Jennifer, and Granger, Bradi B.

Abstract

Nursing leaders must engage with evidence-based practice (EBP) to advance quality patient care. The purpose of this study was to understand the impact of an implementation science study on nurse manager competencies. Qualitative focus group interviews were conducted with leaders following an implementation science study. The AONL Nurse Manager Competency Framework was used as a guide. Leaders felt they were able to promote EBPs, influence others, and grow in their professional role after participating in the implementation science study. Involvement in nurse-led implementation science research can enhance frontline leaders' ability to engage with and promote EBP. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

141. The Cost-Effectiveness of Palliative Care: Insights from the PAL-HF Trial.

Author

Kaufman, Brystana G., Granger, Bradi B., Sun, Jie-Lena, Sanders, Gillian, Taylor, Donald H., Mark, Daniel B., Warraich, Haider, Fiuzat, Mona, Steinhauser, Karen, Tulsky, James A., Rogers, Joseph G., O'Connor, Christopher, Mentz, Robert J., and Taylor, Donald H Jr

Abstract

Background: In a randomized control trial, Palliative Care in Heart Failure (PAL-HF) improved heart failure-related quality of life, though cost-effectiveness remains unknown. The aim of this study was to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of the PAL-HF trial, which provided outpatient palliative care to patients with advanced heart failure.Methods and Results: Outcomes for usual care and PAL-HF strategies were compared using a Markov cohort model over 36 months from a payer perspective. The model parameters were informed by PAL-HF trial data and supplemented with meta-analyses and Medicare administrative data. Outcomes included hospitalization, place of death, Medicare expenditures, quality-adjusted life years (QALYs), and incremental cost-effectiveness ratios. Simulated mortality rates were the same for PAL-HF and usual care cohorts, at 89.7% at 36 months. In the base case analysis, the PAL-HF intervention resulted in an incremental gain of 0.03 QALYs and an incremental cost of $964 per patient for an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of $29,041 per QALY. In 1-way sensitivity analyses, an intervention cost of up to $140 per month is cost effective at $50,000 per QALY. Of 1000 simulations, the PC intervention had a 66.1% probability of being cost effective at a $50,000 willingness-to-pay threshold assuming no decrease in hospitalization. In a scenario analysis, PAL-HF decreased payer spending through reductions in noncardiovascular hospitalizations.Conclusions: These results from this single-center trial are encouraging that palliative care for advanced heart failure is an economically attractive intervention. Confirmation of these findings in larger multicenter trials will be an important part of developing the evidence to support more widespread implementation of the PAL-HF palliative care intervention.
