New approach aims to keep seniors with heart risks out of the hospital
NCT ID NCT05820295
Summary
This study tested a new way to decide which older adults should get extra help from a care coordinator. Researchers wanted to see if asking people about their own difficulties managing care was better at preventing emergency room visits and hospital stays than the usual method, which often assigns help only after a hospital stay. The trial involved 400 Medicare patients aged 65+ with heart disease or risk factors who had complex care needs.
