Bringing I-PASS to the Bedside: A Communication Bundle to Improve Patient Safety and Experience
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Communication
In brief
Patient and Family-Centered I-PASS is a bundle of communication interventions to improve the quality of information exchange between physicians, nurses, and families, and to better integrate families into all aspects of daily decision making in hospitals. This project tests the hypothesis that rates of medical errors and adverse events (primary outcome), hospital experience, communication, and shared understanding will improve following implementation of Patient and Family Centered I-PASS, as compared with current practice.
