Study Summary

The investigators propose an evaluation of an end of life patient decision aid (EOL-PtDA) developed by the Foundation for Informed Medical Decision Making using the RE-AIM (Reach Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance) framework. To evaluate the Reach and Effectiveness, the investigators propose a pilot randomized clinical trial of the EOL-PtDA among patients on the inpatient palliative care service at University Hospital in Colorado. To evaluate barriers and facilitators of Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance of the EOL-PtDA, we propose focus groups of non-palliative care physicians as we perceive these physicians to be the largest barrier to ultimate adoption of the EOL-PtDA. Additionally we propose a focus group of the palliative care physicians who participated in the implementation of this decision guide study to evaluate the feasibility of conducting a randomized control trial within a pall. care service and to evaluate the acceptability of this decision aid as it was implemented. The investigators also propose to conduct focus groups of normal, healthy clinic patients to determine the acceptability among that population. The End-of-Life decision aid is different from other decision aids. From the vantage point of decision quality, a major difference is that its primary focus is on helping patients clarify their values rather than gain knowledge. The results from this study will provide critical preliminary data to inform a randomized clinical trial and/or widespread implementation of the EOL-PtDA. Specific Aims/Research question(s):Aim 1: To determine the Reach and Effectiveness of an end-of-life patient decision aid by conducting a pilot randomized clinical trial in an inpatient palliative care service. Aim 2: To determine physicians' attitudes towards the end-of-life patient decision aid and to gain insights into potential barriers and facilitators to Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance by conducting a qualitative study of non
