About
There are 3 aims of this study. In Aim 1 community patient partners will be enrolled to help guide the research being performed in all of the aims. Investigators will also administer a survey that will help determine factors associated with surgical preparedness. In Aim 2 investigators will develop an intervention to increase surgical preparedness using Human Centered Design Methods. Aim 3 will pilot test the intervention using mixed methods to determine feasibility and implementation outcomes.
Full description
The purpose of this project is to understand surgical preparedness in Latinas undergoing urogynecologic surgery and to develop TIPPS-Latina a refined version of our telehealth intervention for Latinas undergoing urogynecologic surgery using HCD and D&I methods. The goal of the first aim is to develop a participatory design approach and understand surgical preparedness in Latinas undergoing urogynecologic surgery. This cross-sectional study will run in parallel to the other aims. The participatory action framework will guide Aims 1-3. The goals of Aim 2 and Aim 3 are develop and test TIPPS-Latina using the Discover, Design/Build, and Test (DDBT) framework, which is a HCD method to generate evidence-based interventions and their implementations9. During the Discover phase investigators will identify preferences for refinement of TIPPS-Latina and its contextual deployment using mixed methods. During the Design/Build phase investigators will use an iterative process to generate, modify, and adapt our intervention. During the Test phase investigators will conduct pilot testing of TIPPS-Latina using a mixed methods approach that determines feasibility and implementation outcomes. Throughout our study, surgical preparedness will be measured using the Surgical Preparedness Assessment (SPA), a validated survey for measuring preparedness in women undergoing urogynecologic surgery that was developed by our group
