Overview

Efficacy trial shows digital intervention enhances advance care planning in caregivers, indicating potential for broader application.

Key Points

  • Caregivers demonstrated improved engagement in advance care planning behaviours after using the digital intervention.
  • Participants reported significant reductions in decisional conflict regarding surrogate decision-making processes.
  • A total of 42 caregivers interacted with the website for 7–10 days, with data collected through surveys and interviews.
  • The findings suggest that the digital intervention can effectively support caregivers, though further personalisation is needed.
