Impact of Intensive Care Unit Nurse Participation in Post - ICU Follow Up Clinic
{ "Impact of ICU Nurse Participation in Post-ICU Follow-Up Clinic", "This study is looking at how meeting with a former intensive care unit (ICU) nurse after leaving the hospital might affect nurses. Researchers want to see if these meetings change how fulfilled nurses feel about their job. The study will involve 10 patients who were in the ICU and 20 nurses who cared for them. Ten of these nurses will meet with a former patient in a post-ICU clinic visit, which will be a structured 15-minute meeting. The other 10 nurses will complete surveys. The main goal is to measure changes in nurse fulfillment using a special index, at the start and again about 2-4 weeks after the patient's discharge.", "design": "This interventional study plans to enroll 30 participants (10 patients and 20 nurses). Nurses will be randomly assigned to either meet with a former patient or complete surveys.", "commitments": "If you are a patient, you would attend a post-ICU clinic visit to meet with a former nurse. If you are a nurse, you might meet with a former patient for about 15 minutes, or you might complete surveys.", "compensation": "Not stated in the trial record.", "follow_up": "Nurse fulfillment will be measured at the start of the study and again approximately 2-4 weeks after the patient's discharge.", }

Inclusion
What this trial measures
- Change in medical ICU nurse fulfillment toward the ICU following an encounter with a former ICU patient in the post-ICU clinic using an adapted Stanford Professional Fulfillment IndexBaseline, at the follow-up ICU clinic visit for the encounter group (approximately 2-4 weeks after discharge)
The survey consists of 6 questions that are measured on a 5 point Likert scale (scored 0 to 4, with 4 representing higher fulfillment). The scores for all 6 fulfillment questions are then averaged for a composite score for fulfillment (also ranging from 0-4). The surveys will be administered at the time of enrollment for both the encounter and control nurse groups. The post-intervention survey will be administered only to the encounter group immediately following the post-ICU clinic encounter.
