项目摘要

SUMMARY Palliative care can reduce physical and psychological symptoms, improve quality of life, and ensure goal- concordant care at the end-of-life for patients with advanced cancer. There are persistent and worsening disparities in end-of-life outcomes for African American patients which are confounded by the lower likelihood of this population to access and receive palliative care. The basis for these disparities are multi-factorial, and at the end of life, barriers include personal or cultural values in conflict with hospice philosophy, a lack of awareness of hospice services, concern about burdening family, economic factors, and/or mistrust of the healthcare system. The addition of individuals to the care team with a nuanced skillset focused on addressing such barriers to care is a promising approach to enhance palliative care uptake. Community Health Workers (CHWs) are non-clinician, culturally competent public health workers whose role is to promote access to services, provide health education, support care delivery, and promote advocacy in underserved populations. CHWs supplement care for patients with advanced chronic diseases, including HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and cancer, and their impact on improving care in these settings is well-established. We developed an integrated CHW model – An Implementation based Community Health Worker Intervention to Address Disparities in Palliative Care (I TITRATE PC) – that utilizes CHWs as care team members to augment palliative care outcomes for underserved patients with advanced- stage illnesses. In I TITRATE PC, CHWs are trained to provide advocacy, support, motivation, empowerment, and education regarding palliative and end-of-life care to patients and their caregivers. Our preliminary experience suggests that CHWs can improve palliative care outcomes and improve patient and caregiver satisfaction with care. Our long-term goal is to reduce disparities in palliative care for African Americans with advanced cancer. Integration of CHWs as members of the healthcare team may be an effective means to improve access to and enhance the uptake of palliative care in this population. To explore this, we will conduct a randomized effectiveness-implementation pragmatic trial at four diverse cancer centers to 1. compare the effectiveness of the I TITRATE PC intervention versus standard care in improving palliative care outcomes, including quality of life, receipt of quality communication, advance care planning documentation/discussion, and hospice use, and 2. evaluate contextual factors that influence the effectiveness, fidelity, and adoption of the I TITRATE PC intervention. We anticipate this work will establish the effectiveness of a CHW-based palliative care intervention in a priority population and generate generalizable knowledge to guide the development and implementation of interventions to increase the use of palliative care services in underserved populations.

摘要姑息治疗可以减轻身心症状，提高生活质量，确保目标-- 为晚期癌症患者提供临终关怀。有持续和恶化的非洲裔美国人患者临终结局的差异，这种差异被较低的可能性所混淆使这些人口能够获得和接受姑息治疗。造成这些差异的基础是多因素的，而且在生命的终结，障碍包括个人或文化价值观与临终关怀哲学相冲突，缺乏对临终关怀服务、对家庭负担的担忧、经济因素和/或对医疗保健系统的不信任。将具有细微差别的技能集的个人添加到护理团队，专注于解决此类护理障碍是一种很有前途的方法，可以提高姑息治疗的接受度。社区卫生工作者(CHW)是非临床医生，有文化能力的公共卫生工作者，他们的作用是促进获得服务，提供健康教育，支持提供护理，并在服务不足的人群中促进宣传。社区卫生服务中心为患者提供补充护理晚期慢性病，包括艾滋病毒/艾滋病、结核病和癌症，及其对改善的影响这些环境中的护理是公认的。我们开发了一个集成的CHW模型--基于实现社区卫生工作者干预以解决姑息治疗中的差异(I滴定PC)-利用 CHW作为护理团队成员，为服务不足的晚期患者提供姑息治疗结果阶段性疾病。在I滴定PC中，CHW接受培训以提供宣传、支持、激励、授权、以及对病人及其照顾者进行姑息和临终关怀的教育。我们的预赛经验表明，社区卫生服务可以改善姑息治疗结果，改善患者和照顾者护理的满足感。我们的长期目标是减少晚期癌症非裔美国人在姑息治疗方面的差距。将社区卫生工作者整合为医疗团队的成员可能是改善获得和提高这一人群对姑息治疗的接受程度。为了探索这一点，我们将进行一项随机的有效性-在四个不同的癌症中心实施务实试验，以1.比较 I滴定PC干预与标准护理在改善姑息治疗结果方面的对比，包括生命、优质沟通的接收、预先护理计划文档/讨论和临终关怀使用，以及 2.评估影响i滴定PC的有效性、保真度和采用率的环境因素干预。我们期待这项工作将确立基于CHW的姑息治疗干预的有效性在优先人口中，并生成可概括的知识以指导开发和实施在服务不足的人群中增加姑息护理服务使用的干预措施。
