The I-TRANSFER project funded by the National Institute of Nursing Research aims to reduce rehospitalization and emergency visits among sepsis survivors by improving transitions to home health care through a pragmatic stepped wedge randomized trial.
Description
This project aims to improve post-hospitalization outcomes for sepsis survivors through targeted interventions and implementation science, with potential for widespread impact on clinical practice and patient recovery. The study evaluates the effectiveness of the I-TRANSFER intervention to improve identification and communication of sepsis survivors to home health care, provide early attention to prevent poor outcomes, and explore implementation factors across diverse hospitals and home health agencies.
