Group 2 names the comparator: usual care.
| Group | Title | Description | With the outcome | Analysed | ClinicalTrials.gov code |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group 1 | EHR-based Clinician Jumpstart | The EHR-based Jumpstart Guide will be developed by extracting data from the EHR to identify documents uploaded prior to the current hospitalization. It will summarize the presence/absence of POLST, advance directives and DPOA documentation and patients' code status.~EHR-based Clinician Jumpstart: The Jumpstart Guide is a communication-priming intervention for clinicians that addresses hospitalized patients' goals of care. The intervention's goal is to prompt clinicians to provide standard of care which includes a discussion with patients or their legal surrogate decision-maker about their goals of care. The one-page Jumpstart Guide provides information to the clinician about prior advance care planning documentation and code status derived from the EHR. The Jumpstart Guides includes tips to improve goals-of-care communication. | 265 | 1,255 | OG000 |
| Group 2 | Usual Care | The clinicians (hospital teams) for patients in the control group will not receive Jumpstart guides. These subjects will receive usual care. | 251 | 1,257 | OG001 |
