Study Summary

With one of the highest incidences of lung disease deaths in the nation, there is great need for home end-of-life palliative care in the rural, disadvantaged communities of West Virginia. The aims of this proposed study are to: (1) pilot test the nursing care intervention with patients and family members managing home supportive EOLPC for rare advanced lung disease and (2) collect research data to report in the NIH resubmission and future trials.

Primary Outcome

The intervention group R-ALD patients will report lower scores on breathlessness scale compared to control group patients at 3 months. Breathlessness is measured by Self-report shortness of breath scale (1 item, 0-10; 0-no shortness of breath, 10 = shortness of breath as bad as can be) (Gift, Narsavage, 1998
