Study Summary
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal, rare neurodegenerative disease affecting 30,000 people in the United States. The gold standard of care for people with ALS is multidisciplinary clinics (MDC). In these multidisciplinary clinics, which occur every 3 to 4 months, people with ALS see up to 12 different healthcare providers (e.g., speech therapy, physical therapy, the ALS doctor). These clinics can last from three to five hours, and across these three to five hours people with ALS and their caregivers receive a lot of information that is critical to the care and quality of life for people with ALS. However, this information can be difficult to remember given the large amount of information that is conveyed. The current standard for providing take-home information about the visit is to provide patients with a written after-visit summary and access to their doctor's notes about the visit, typically through the patient portal. This study tests whether providing participants with video recordings of their MDC visits improves their quality of life and the quality of life of their caregivers. The study will enroll 400 pairs of people with ALS and their caregivers from eight different sites in the United States. Half of the participants in the study will receive their after-visit summary notes (the NOTES condition) and the other half of the participants will receive both their summary notes, but will also receive video recordings of their MDC visits that they can watch on their own at home (the VIDEO condition). The study will last for 12 months, with participants receiving NOTES or VIDEO at each of their regularly-scheduled MDCs during the 12 months. The study will test whether caregiver and patient participants in the VIDEO condition experience better quality of life than those in the NOTES condition at 1 month, 6 months, and 12 months from study enrollment. The results of this study will help determine what is the most effective approach to communicating MDC i
