Tailoring Post Discharge (The TPD Study)

This randomized control trial seeks to better understand the educational needs of Acute Coronary Symptom (ACS) patients including the optimal timing and method of delivery as well as linkages with appropriate community resources and supports are important for cardiac patients to self-manage post hospital discharge to improve outcomes. While there is some literature of the learning needs of ACS patients, there is a paucity of research related to the timing and preferred methods of delivery. This study aims to better understand how best to tailor care for ACS patients from hospital to community. Specifically, the investigators propose a 2 phased approach to understand the needs of patients, and then to develop and deliver a tailored approach to assess, educate and support patients both in-hospital and within the community. The intervention compares 1) a virtual remote home monitoring (RHM) platform and 2) Rapid Response Nursing (RRN) staff to follow, educate and support ACS patients post hospital discharge for a period of no more than 30 days.

The Primary Objective of this study is to safely transition low risk ACS patients, from hospital to home, with appropriate supports to safely self-manage in the community and to provide educational and community supports to improve post discharge outcomes of low risk ACS patients
