Résumé

Annually, about 4000 US children undergo a tracheostomy procedure to provide a functional, safe airway. In the hospital, qualified staff monitor and address problems, but post-discharge this responsibility shifts entirely to caregivers. The stress and constant demands of caregiving for a child with a tracheostomy with or without ventilator negatively affect caregivers. The aims of the study are to relieve the burden and stress experienced by caregivers at home, improve safety and outcomes for children post-discharge, and identify facilitators and barriers to implementation of comprehensive pediatric discharge programs. The Boosting REsources and cAregiver empowerment for Tracheostomy care at HomE (BREATHE Study) is a pragmatic two-arm, randomized trial with six sites across the US. Caregivers of a child with a tracheostomy are randomized to comparator ("Trach Me Home") or intervention ("Trach Plus"). The Comparator arm is the current gold standard focusing on caregiver education, technical skill building, and case management. The Intervention arm contains all elements of the Comparator plus educational resources, social support and communication with the outpatient pediatrician. Caregivers will complete three surveys: baseline (pre-discharge), 4-week and 6-month post-discharge. Outpatient pediatricians will complete a survey to assess self-confidence in caring for a child with tracheostomy and satisfaction with discharge communication. Interviews with clinicians and staff will identify facilitators and barriers to implementation. The study will examine whether the Intervention arm leads to lower caregiver burden, lower readmission rates and higher pediatrician satisfaction than Comparator arm. The BREATHE Study will advance our understanding of how hospitals can support caregivers with a child with a tracheostomy as they resume life, work, and family activities after discharge. Registered on clinicaltrials.gov (NCT06283953). February 28, 2024.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND

METHODS METHODS

The Boosting REsources and cAregiver empowerment for Tracheostomy care at HomE (BREATHE Study) is a pragmatic two-arm, randomized trial with six sites across the US. Caregivers of a child with a tracheostomy are randomized to comparator ("Trach Me Home") or intervention ("Trach Plus"). The Comparator arm is the current gold standard focusing on caregiver education, technical skill building, and case management. The Intervention arm contains all elements of the Comparator plus educational resources, social support and communication with the outpatient pediatrician. Caregivers will complete three surveys: baseline (pre-discharge), 4-week and 6-month post-discharge. Outpatient pediatricians will complete a survey to assess self-confidence in caring for a child with tracheostomy and satisfaction with discharge communication. Interviews with clinicians and staff will identify facilitators and barriers to implementation. The study will examine whether the Intervention arm leads to lower caregiver burden, lower readmission rates and higher pediatrician satisfaction than Comparator arm.

DISCUSSION CONCLUSIONS

The BREATHE Study will advance our understanding of how hospitals can support caregivers with a child with a tracheostomy as they resume life, work, and family activities after discharge.
