3 Background Clinical Consents 5 Issues with Clinical Consents A review of 540 written consent forms, from 157 hospitals, found the necessary elements of informed consent (purpose, risks, benefits, & alternatives) in only 26% of the documents. Bottrell MM, et al. Archives of Surgery. 2000;135: ACRP 2012 Houston, TX Page 3

4 Issues with Clinical Consents A review of 89 written consent forms for radical prostatectomy: The potential need for blood transfusion was disclosed on 88.8% of the consent forms. HOWEVER, proper consent for blood products was ONLY obtained in 25.8% of the cases. 92.1% of patients ultimately received a transfusion. Issa MA, et al. The Journal of Urology. 2006;176: Background Automating Clinical Consents 8 ACRP 2012 Houston, TX Page 4

5 Automating Clinical Consents 9 The Department of Veterans Affairs conducted a Pilot Study of an Automated Informed Consent Software tool in two facilities: Hines VA Medical Center, Chicago Atlanta VA Medical Center, Atlanta Compared a sampling of patient records after implementation of the automated process (January 2004) to a control group employing paper consents (January 2003) Automating Clinical Consents 10 Percent of Consents 100% 100% 100% 100% 92% 88% Traditional (paper) consent process Automated consent process 80% 60% 40% 20% 0% Consent in Accurate Treatment the EHR Note in Description the EHR Present O Hara R. Electronic Support for Patient Decisions Automating and Integrating the Informed Consent Process. TEPR 05 Annual Conference. Salt Lake City: May 17, % ACRP 2012 Houston, TX Page 5

The Journal of Urology. 2006;176: ACRP 2012 Houston, TX Page 6

7 Consenting for Procedures and Studies Ensuring Patient Understanding 13 Confirming Understanding 14 NQF Safe Practice 5 Ask each patient or legal surrogate to teach back, in his or her own words, key information about the proposed treatments or procedures for which he or she is being asked to provide informed consent. ACRP 2012 Houston, TX Page 7

8 Confirming Understanding The latest evidence a prospective, randomized, controlled trial of teach back ( repeat back ) 575 subjects 7 sites Fink AS, Prochazka AV, Henderson WG, et al. Ann Surg 2010;252: Confirming Understanding Repeat-Back Study: Two arms An automated informed consent software application that produces detailed, procedurespecific consent forms The same system with a series of six repeat-back (teach-back) prompts based on NQF-recommended language and a mechanism for documenting the patient s response 16 ACRP 2012 Houston, TX Page 8

9 Confirming Understanding Screen shot from the Repeat- Back Study 17 Confirming Understanding Repeat-Back Study: Results Significantly higher patient comprehension in the group exposed to repeat-back Majority of providers also reported a belief that use of Safe Practice 5 improved patient understanding The repeat-back process took only 2.6 additional minutes on average 18 ACRP 2012 Houston, TX Page 9

10 Confirming Understanding Implementation of teach-back (repeat-back) for a research consent 19 Patient Experience: Automated 20 Readability Adjustable font size Understanding Visualize procedures with pictures or video Safety Consent is digitally stored upon signature for immediate access by clinical staff Less chance for privacy breech or loss of consent related to scanning ACRP 2012 Houston, TX Page 10
