Why this study was a success due to the sheer size (nearly 100,000 patients in about 30 EDs) of the study, and the fact that, as far as the investigators know, all study sites continue to employ the clinical decision support tool. Why is that important in the emergency room? And then we had clinical decision support.

Ten years ago we would have been hard pressed to find 3 clinical trial abstracts submitted to the annual meeting, much less high quality randomized trials with robust measures, sample sizes, and analytics plans. These were clinically significant and statistically significant improvements. Emergency rooms. Eric: Okay.

And, what if your surgeon openly discussed the expected ‘bad stuff’ of post-operative recovery, instead of rotely reciting a list of possible complications? Instead, what if your surgeon told you that the operation she was discussing could help with only 4 things: live longer, feel better, prevent disability, or obtain a diagnosis?

The songs about how saving lives is actually a pretty complicated business. And when I was getting my PhD, I wanted to find something that spoke to me, and I had been doing clinical work in nursing homes.

And it’s really interesting because if you look at other studies like using other cohorts, like one out of Canada and they’ve used the clinical frailty scale, they have similar like Kaplan Meier Curves where it’s the really frailty that’s driving that risk of mortality and frailty, we’re not seeing it as much.

Should we focus on something else, both from a clinical and a research perspective? And I think the advanced planning debate is really a question of, how do we help this very complicated situation?

That’s focused on older adults who are too frail to get into clinic. In that clinical experience, we saw a lot of older adults who would develop acute illness, often exacerbations of their chronic conditions. We relied on our clinical experience as geriatricians, that home-based primary care experience. Bruce: Sure.

Walk-in clinics are overbooked, the emergency rooms at the hospitals all have overfull waiting rooms and doctors and nurses are doing 12-hour or longer shifts.
