Assessing Advance Care Planning Fidelity within the Context of Cognitive Impairment: The SHARE Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Context

Advance care planning (ACP) is critical among primary care patients with cognitive impairment, but few interventions have tested ACP with this population.

Objective

Describe the development and evaluation of a tool for assessing ACP fidelity within the context of cognitive impairment, including inter-rater reliability, convergent validity, and overall fidelity using clinical trial data.

Design

SHARE is a multicomponent intervention inclusive of facilitated ACP conversations. From a two group, single blind, randomized controlled trial, recorded ACP conversations were rated for fidelity. 145 primary care patients and their care partners were randomized to receive the intervention. Participating patients were 80+ years, had a care partner, and indications of cogn
