What this trial measures
- Patient-reported acceptability of the COAST decision support tool2-4 weeks after exposure to COAST
The proportion of patients who agree with the acceptability of the COAST decision support tool is measured by the Acceptability of Intervention Measure (AIM). This tool consists of four items designed to monitor and evaluate the success of implementation efforts. Respondents can rate each item on a scale from 1 (completely disagree) to 5 (completely agree). Higher scores reflect greater agreement with the acceptability of the intervention. Patients with a score of 4 or higher will be included in the numerator, while all patients who complete the measure will be included in the denominator. We will define COAST as "acceptable" if this proportion is greater than 70%.
- Patient-reported appropriateness of the COAST decision support tool2-4 weeks after exposure to COAST
The proportion of patients who agree with the appropriateness of the COAST decision support tool is measured using the Intervention Appropriateness Measure (IAM). This tool consists of four items designed to evaluate the suitability and relevance of an intervention. Respondents can rate each item on a scale from 1 (completely disagree) to 5 (completely agree). Higher scores reflect greater agreement with the appropriateness of the intervention. Patients with a score of 4 or higher will be included in the numerator, while all patients who complete the measure will be included in the denominator. We will define COAST as "appropriate" if this proportion is greater than 70%.
- Provider-reported feasibility of the COAST decision support toolAt the conclusion of participant enrollment, approximately 1 month after the last patient is enrolled.
The proportion of healthcare providers who care for adult patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) and agree on the feasibility of the COAST decision support tool is measured using the Feasibility of Intervention Measure (FIM). This tool consists of four items designed to measure the feasibility or extent to which an intervention can be successfully used or carried out within a given setting. Respondents can rate each item on a scale from 1 (completely disagree) to 5 (completely agree). Higher scores reflect greater agreement with the feasibility of implementing the COAST tool. Providers with a score of 4 or higher will be included in the numerator, while all providers who complete the measure will be included in the denominator. We will define COAST as "feasible" if this proportion is 70% or greater.
