Abstract
Context
: Racial disparities in advance care planning (ACP) have been consistently identified in the literature. Few interventions have been designed to address the disparities identified. Objectives
: To assess the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a culturally sensitive, pilot ACP intervention for African American patients diagnosed with cancer in a safety net healthcare system. Methods
: Eligible patients with stage II, III or IV breast, lung, colorectal, or prostate cancer were identified from the electronic health record, recruited, and randomized to the intervention group or usual care control group. Intervention participants met with an African American lay health advisor who assisted them in watching a video that addressed completion of ACP and facilitated ACP discussion. Descriptive analyses were conducted to describe baseline sociodemographic and clinical characteristics, cancer health literacy, and religious coping among participants. Logistic regression analyses were conducted to evaluate predictors of positive change in stage of intent to discuss ACP at 1, 3, and 6-months post intervention. Results
: Seventy-six participants were recruited and randomized (38 intervention, 38 controls). The mean age for participants was 58.8 years (SD 10.8), 62.5% were female, and 90.2% had stage III or IV disease. The intervention proved feasible with 89.5% completion. Intervention participants were more likely to have a positive change in stage of intent to discuss a living will or advance directive than usual care controls at 1-month (AOR: 4.57, 95% CI: 1.11, 18.82) and 3-months (AOR: 5.38, 95% CI: 1.05, 27.68) post-intervention. The majority (94.1%) of intervention participants would recommend the intervention to a friend or family member. Conclusion
: This culturally sensitive ACP program proved to be feasible, acceptable to participants, and showed some promise in promoting discussion about ACP among participants and members of their healthcare team.
