Objectives

Narrative objectives1

In this research, we developed decision aid for the location of care based on the values of the stroke with older people and families. We aims to verify the effect to the conflict and participation of decision making by randomized comparative test.

Results

Ninety-nine participants (intervention n = 51; control n = 48) were in the analysis. No significant differences in decision-making conflict [t (99) = 0.69, p = 0.49] and roles [chi-square (5) = 3.65, p = 0.46] were found. However, a significant difference in participation rate [t (99) = 2.24, p = 0.03] was observed. Decision aid helped reduce uncertainty and improve participation, especially for participants living alone and unsure about their discharge destination.

Baseline Characteristics

Characteristics of the participants summarizes the characteristics of the participants at baseline. The participants were hospitalized for an average duration of 73.2 days (SD = 35.6) for the intervention group and 87.4 days (SD = 43.4) for the control group. The average age of the participants was 75.5 years (SD = 6.6) in the intervention group and 75.5 years (SD = 6.6) in the control group. In terms of the status of readiness for decision-making, in the intervention group, 66.7% had already decided on their discharge destination and 45.8% had done so in the control group. The discharge destination was the same place as before admission in 65.7% of the participants and a different place in 34.3% of the participants. Regarding whom the participants wanted to decide their discharge destination, the largest number of the participants wanted to do so 'With their family,' followed by 'With family and healthcare professionals.' We found that the intervention group contained significantly more participants who had already decided their discharge destination than the control group (p < 0.05). It was also found that significantly more participants chose 'the same place as before admission' as their discharge destination (p < 0.01).

Participant flow

Based on the prescribed facility criteria and preliminary survey, we found that the third and fourth floors were similar and concluded the baseline conditions to be the same for both in terms of patient gender, age, severity of illness, and the ratio of the number of stroke patients. Approximately two weeks after admission to the rehabilitation hospital, when the patients had familiarized themselves with their hospital environment, those who met the eligibility criteria were introduced to us by the head nurse. The principal investigator described the outline of the study orally to the patients, using an explanatory document. The participants were enrolled in the study after they provided written informed consent. While following the allocation table, the principal investigator randomly allocated the participants to the intervention or the control groups according to the hospital room where the initial meeting with the research participants had occurred. The principal investigator created a table by integrating (a) a random number table that Research Assistant A had created using a computer at a 1:1 ratio and (b) an allocation table of patients according to their condition's severity designed by the ward's head nurse. The severity of illness was determined by the lowest total score of a daily living function assessment and the Functional Independence Measure (FIM). According to the facility criteria prescribed by the government, the severely ill are those who have a daily living function assessment of 10 points or more, or a total FIM score of 55 points or less. Until the allocation to the groups was completed, the order of allocation was concealed from Research Assistant A, the floor's head nurse, the patients, their families, and multidisciplinary professionals (as part of the 'allocation concealment mechanism').
