An interventional study of Teach-Back Lesson in Teach-Back Communication, Arthritis and Knee Osteoarthritis, sponsored by Duke University. Terminated at 1 site in United States. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 80 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2019-12-17.

The goal of this study is to analyze patient:provider communication surrounding the discussion of difficult clinical conversations such as knee replacement options. This study will also examine how using the teach-back communication technique can improve communication between patients and providers. Orthopedic residents, fellows, physician assistants, and attendings that agree to participate will be consented. Patients, who are likely to engage in a difficult clinical conversation, such as those who have a clinical indication for a Total Knee Replacement or a Partial Knee Replacement, will be recruited from participating providers clinical schedules. Patient:provider interactions will be recorded and then the providers will attend a 1 hour education lecture about how to use teach-back. After attending the lecture, additional patient:provider interactions will be recorded and analyzed via a qualitative approach. Additionally, providers will participate in a semi-structured interview to capture their perceptions of teach-back and what challenges and benefits they may derive from using it.

Inclusion Criteria (Provider Participants)
Exclusion criterion (Provider Participants):
A teach-back lesson will be provided to physician participants (Teach-Back Group), who are participating in challenging clinical discussions with patients
Other: Teach-Back Lesson
A teach-back lesson will be given to providers (teach-back group) who have challenging clinical discussions with patients
Provider's uninterrupted utterances
We will assess this outcome directly from audio-recorded conversations. A coding scheme will then be developed that captures the average length of provider utterance without asking a question or an interruption from a patient
Time frame: End of discussion with patient, 20 minutes
Patient/provider talking ratio
This outcome will also be assessed from audio-recorded conversations. The transcript will be coded and the coding scheme will compare how often and how long patients talk compared to provider talking.
Time frame: End of discussion with patient, 20 minutes
Providers perceptions about teach-back
This outcome will be assessed via semi-structured interviews.
Time frame: End of semi-structured interview, one hour
Providers belief of future use of teach-back
This outcome will be assessed via the semi-structured interview
Time frame: End of semi-structured interview, one hour
