About this trial

This is an interventional other trial for Spinal Cord Injuries focused on measuring Decision tool

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)FemaleDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Spinal cord injury (traumatic or non-traumatic)
  • Need for assistance with daily life activities and/or personal care; women with mild, moderate or severe severity will be eligible
  • actively planning or in the process of making a decision about whether or not to get pregnant in the near future

Exclusion Criteria:

- No plans for getting pregnant

Sites / Locations

  • University of Michigan

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Decision-making tool

Arm Description

Women will receive the decision making tool and use for a 3 month period.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change in the readiness to make a choice in Stage of Decision-Making Scale
Decision or choice predisposition about pregnancy. The single-item scale ranges from "haven't begun to think about choices" to "have already made a decision and unlikely to change my mind".
Change in the Decisional Conflict Scale Score
Decisional conflict is characterized by uncertainty about a decision. The Decisional Conflict Scale consists of 9 items with 5 response options. Total scores range from 0 (no decisional conflict) to 45 (extremely high decisional conflict).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Acceptability of decision making tool as assessed by participant rating of the presentation of information
Acceptability of decision making tool is measured by 11 items that measure the presentation of information are rated on Likert scales ranging from 1 (poor) to 4 (excellent) with higher scores reflecting better information presentation
Acceptability of decision making tool as assessed by participant rating by the usefulness in supporting decision making
Acceptability is measured by 9 items. The items measure the usefulness of worksheets in the decision making tool and are rated on Likert scales ranging from 1 (not at all useful) to 5 (very useful). Higher scores indicate an increase in usefulness.
Demand of decision making tool as assessed by duration of intervention use
Tracking usage through web statistics (i.e. site traffic and length of stay on the webpage)
Demand of decision making tool as measured by question on likeliness of using the tool after the study is over
This is measured with a single item rated on Likert scales of 1 (definitely not likely) to 5 (very likely). Higher scores indicate a higher likelihood of using the tool after the study is over.
Implementation of decision making tool as measured by question of ease of use of tool
Implementation is measured with a single item rated on Likert scales ranging from 1 (very hard) to 5 (very easy).

Arm Title
Decision-making tool
Arm Type
Experimental
Arm Description
Women will receive the decision making tool and use for a 3 month period.
Intervention Type
Behavioral
Intervention Name(s)
Decision-making tool
