Study Summary
This study aims to improve communication between medical teams, patients, and families in the pediatric cardiac intensive care unit. The researchers hypothesize that both improving interprofessional teamwork when preparing for family meeting and preparing families for these meetings will improve team and family satisfaction with communication. The study will involve bringing together a group of medical professionals and parents of patients to collaboratively design an intervention. In addition, the researchers will study feasibility and acceptability of the intervention and whether it impacts family and team outcomes.
Primary Outcome
Acceptability of the study will be evaluated with 1 item from the Satisfaction with and Impact of the Course survey. The item is whether the training would be recommended to colleagues scored using a 4-point Likert scale (1=strongly agree to 4=strongly disagree), therefore a lower score indicates more acceptability.
