This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) will fund a $811,443 cluster randomized trial to evaluate the impact of a shared decision-making (SDM) training program for breast surgeons and a patient decision aid for women aged 70+ with early-stage, low-risk breast cancer. The goal is to reduce the use of low-value treatments, such as mastectomy, sentinel lymph node biopsy, and radiation therapy after breast-conserving surgery, without...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) aims to develop effective, scalable tools and interventions to reduce postoperative mortality, delirium, cognitive decline, and other adverse outcomes in vulnerable elderly surgical patients. The 5-year, $801,268 award to the University of Pittsburgh will fund research to create reliable preoperative risk prediction models and enable proactive multimodal perioperative interventions, including...
The National Institute on Aging (NIA), under the Federal Aging Research Grant Program (CFDA 93.866), awarded a $242,956 Project Grant to the University of Colorado-Denver to support the development and evaluation of a decision aid to improve shared decision-making for older adults with Parkinson's disease and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) considering deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery.
