Living With Multimorbidity: CO-ORDINATE Program
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Multimorbidity, Quality of Life, Symptom Management
In brief
Multimorbidity is common and is the coexistence of two or more chronic conditions in the same individual. People with multimorbidity suffer from a high symptom burden, directly affecting quality of life (QOL). Hospitalization can be a window of opportunity to initiate interventions to promote recovery and resilience and enhance QOL. However, interventions targeting the symptom trajectory and burden of patients with multimorbidity are lacking. Thus, the investigators envisage a nurse-led pre-discharge intervention augmented by telephone support, focusing on care coordination and symptom management. This approach is anticipated to help reduce symptom burden and improve QOL.
