RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Shared decision making (SDM) is gaining importance in cardiology, including Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) reimbursement policies requiring documented SDM for patients considering primary prevention implantable cardioverter defibrillators. The DECIDE-ICD Trial (Decision Support Intervention for Patients offered implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillators) assessed the implementation and effectiveness of patient decision aids (DAs) using a stepped-wedge design at 7 sites. The purpose of this subanalysis was to qualitatively describe electrophysiology clinicians' experience implementing and using the DAs. METHODS: This included semi-structured individual interviews with electrophysiology clinicians at participating sites across the US, at least 6 months following conversion into the implementation phase of the trial (from June 2020 through February 2022). The interview guide was structured according to the RE-AIM (Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation and Maintenance [implementation evaluation model]) framework, assessing clinician experiences, which can impact implementation domains, and was qualitatively assessed using a mixed inductive/deductive method. RESULTS: We completed 22 interviews post-implementation across all 7 sites. Participants included both physicians (n=16) and other clinicians who counsel patients regarding treatment options (n=6). While perception of SDM and the DA were positive, participants highlighted reasons for uneven delivery of DAs to appropriate patients. The CMS mandate for SDM was not universally viewed as associating with patients receiving DA's, but rather (1) logistics of DA delivery, (2) perceived effectiveness in improving patient decision-making, and (3) match of DA content to current patient populations. Remaining tensions include the specific trial data used in DAs and reconciling timing of delivery with when patients are actively making decisions. CONCLUSIONS: Clinicians charged with delivering DAs to patients considering primary prevention implantable cardioverter defibrillators were generally supportive of the tenets of SDM, and of the DA tools themselves, but noted several opportunities to improve the reach and continued use of them in routine care.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Multiple class I and class IIa recommendations exist related to surgical ablation (SA) of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. OBJECTIVE: Examine temporal trends and predictors of SA for AF in a large US healthcare system. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed data from the Society for Thoracic Surgery (STS) Adult Cardiac Surgery Database for 21 hospitals in the Providence St. Joseph Health system. All patients with preoperative AF who underwent isolated coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, isolated aortic valve replacement (AVR), AVR with CABG surgery (AVR+CABG), isolated mitral valve repair or replacement (MVRr), and MVRr with CABG surgery (MVRr+CABG) from July 1, 2014, to March 31, 2020 were included. Temporal trends in SA were evaluated using the Cochran-Armitage trends test. A multilevel logistic regression model was used to examine patient-, hospital-, and surgeon-level predictors of SA. RESULTS: Among 3124 patients with preoperative AF, 910 (29.1%) underwent SA. This was performed most often in those undergoing isolated MVRr (n = 324, 44.8%) or MVRr+CABG (n = 75, 35.2%). Rates of SA increased over time and were highly variable between hospitals. Years since graduation from medical school for the primary operator was one of the few predictors of SA: odds ratio (95% confidence interval) = 0.71 (0.56-0.90) for every 10-year increase. Annual surgical (both hospital and operator) and AF catheter ablation volumes were not predictive of SA. CONCLUSION: Wide variability in rates of SA for AF exist, underscoring the need for greater preoperative collaboration between cardiologists, electrophysiologists, and cardiac surgeons.

RESUMO

Shared decision making (SDM) facilitates delivery of medical therapies that are in alignment with patients' goals and values. Medicare national coverage decision for several interventions now includes SDM mandates, but few have been evaluated in nationwide studies. Based upon a detailed needs assessment with diverse stakeholders, we developed pamphlet and video patient decision aids (PtDAs) for implantable cardioverter/defibrillator (ICD) implantation, ICD replacement, and cardiac resynchronization therapy with defibrillation to help patients contemplate, forecast, and deliberate their options. These PtDAs are the foundation of the Multicenter Trial of a Shared Decision Support Intervention for Patients Offered Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillators (DECIDE-ICD), a multicenter, randomized trial sponsored by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute aimed at understanding the effectiveness and implementation of an SDM support intervention for patients considering ICDs. Finalization of a Medicare coverage decision mandating the inclusion of SDM for new ICD implantation occurred shortly after trial initiation, raising novel practical and statistical considerations for evaluating study end points. METHODS/DESIGN: A stepped-wedge randomized controlled trial was designed, guided by the RE-AIM (Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, Maintenance) planning and evaluation framework using an effectiveness-implementation hybrid type II design. Six electrophysiology programs from across the United States will participate. The primary effectiveness outcome is decision quality (defined by knowledge and values-treatment concordance). Patients with heart failure who are clinically eligible for an ICD are eligible for the study. Target enrollment is 900 participants. DISCUSSION: Study findings will provide a foundation for implementing decision support interventions, including PtDAs, with patients who have chronic progressive illness and are facing decisions involving invasive, preference-sensitive therapy options.
