About this study
The objective of this study is to conduct a multisite trial evaluating the impact of adding an audio recording of clinic visits (AUDIO) to usual care in older adults with multimorbidity, including diabetes, compared to After Visit Summary (AVS) alone (Usual Care; UC).
Read the detailed description
The objective of this study is to conduct a multisite trial evaluating the impact of adding an audio recording of clinic visits (AUDIO) to usual care in older adults with multimorbidity, including diabetes, compared to AVS alone (Usual Care; UC). The specific aims are: Aim 1 Conduct a three-site trial in primary care where older patients with multimorbidity including diabetes (n=336) will be randomized to receive an audio recording as well as AVS (AUDIO) versus AVS alone (UC) for all scheduled clinic visits over 12 months; patients will be assessed at baseline, 1 week, 6 months and 12 months. Applicants hypothesize (Main Effect) that: compared to those receiving UC, patients randomized to also receive audio recordings (AUDIO) of clinic visits will report a greater self-management ability (Primary Outcome), with improved quality of life, medication adherence, and satisfaction (Secondary Outcomes) at 12 months.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Clinic visit audio recordings for self-management in older adultsOther
The intervention is audio-recordings of primary care clinic visits that are shared with participating patients. All scheduled visits with study clinicians will be recorded and shared with patients randomized to the intervention group (AUDIO) for 12 months.
Usual CareOther
The Usual Care arm participants will receive After Visit Summaries (AVS) per the standard delivery at each institution
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Audio | Active comparator | Researchers will audio record both in-person and telehealth visits of participants in the intervention group. Receives: Other: Clinic visit audio recordings for self-management in older adults |
| Usual care | Placebo comparator | Participants will receive Usual Care Receives: Other: Usual Care |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Patient Activation Measure-Short Form
The Patient Activation Measure-Short Form is a 13-item patient reported measure. Scores range from 0 (low activation) to 100 (high activation).
Measured: Patient activation at 12-months from enrollment
Secondary outcomes (3)
Adherence to Refills and Medications-D (ARMS-D)
Eleven-item measure of medication adherence in diabetes. Two domains: i) Medication taking; and ii) medication refill.
Measured: Adherence at 12-months from enrollment
Global PROMIS 10
Global PROMIS (Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System) is a 10-item patient reported measure with two domains: mental and physical health. Domain scores range from 4 to 20, with higher scores representing better health.
Measured: Global PROMIS 10 at 12 month from enrollment
Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire-18
Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire-18 (PSQ-18) is a patient reported measure of satisfaction. It assesses seven sub-scales of satisfaction with care with scores ranging from 1 - 5 for each. We will use the two-item domain assessing general satisfaction.
Measured: Patient satisfaction at 12-months from enrollment
