This is a pilot study to test the feasibility of GoalNav® Clinic, an Electronic Data Capture platform which is specifically designed to collect data on patient goals, live in a clinical setting.
Goal Attainment Scaling (GAS) is an individualized outcome measure that quantifies the effects of an intervention based on personalized goals.
Ardea Outcomes has developed an electronic data capture system called GoalNav® Clinic that is designed to capture GAS data (individual goals) in addition to other outcome measures that is useful to the doctor such as assessment information, patient demographics, cognitive status, etc..
With the help of a study doctor and/or a member of the research team trained in the process of conducting GAS interviews, patients and/or care partners set goals that are meaningful and relevant to them or their loved one's condition. Goals are then followed up in three months, and ratings are provided by the GAS interviewer and patient and/or care partner.

| Goal Setting Survey | The goal setting survey includes multiple choice, Likert type and open-ended questions with respect to the feasibility and acceptability of Goal Attainment Scaling. The questions focus on the impressions and experiences of patients and care partners (in Arm A and Arm B), and the study doctors when conducting interviews using GoalNav® EDC with and without goal inventory. The percentage of participants agreeing with statements with respect to ease of use, time commitment, etc. will be the unit of measurement. The answers to the open-ended questions will also be qualitatively analyzed. | 4 months |
