ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
This study aimed to develop the conversation tool "I-HARP for COPD" for timely identification of palliative care needs in Dutch patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).METHODS:
An iterative and participatory research design was used to develop "I-HARP for COPD". There were 2 phases to the development of "I-HARP for COPD" content development and testing. A review of current literature, parallel focus groups, and a questionnaire among experts were used to develop the content of "I-HARP for COPD". "I-HARP for COPD" was then assessed by health-care professionals (HCPs) in clinical practice for understanding, difficulty, and relevance.RESULTS:
A total of 46 HCPs, 6 patients, 1 informal caregiver, and 1 bereaved informal caregiver participated in this study. "I-HARP for COPD" included 14 screening questions, additional in-depth questions, and recommendations to address identified needs. The content of "I-HARP for COPD" was accepted by 86.2% of the HCPs. SIGNIFICANCE OFRESULTS:
"I-HARP for COPD" was successfully developed for providing guidance in the palliative care of Dutch patients with COPD and their informal caregivers. By supporting HCPs with "I-HARP for COPD", they are better able to timely identify and direct palliative care needs.
