Brief Summary: Our objective in the proposed project is to: (a) operationalize and determine the feasibility and acceptability of a trial where clinic multi-disciplinary clinic (MDC) visits are audio/video recorded and shared with patients with ALS and their caregivers; (b) gather preliminary data examining the impact of routinely adding audio/video recordings of clinic visits to UC on self-management ability and other behavioral, health and health services outcomes at baseline (T0) and other regular interviews from enrollment (T1= 1 Week, T2= 3 Months); and (c) identify factors pertinent to the acceptability of our study protocol and the audio/video recording of visits.
Detailed Description: We will conduct a single-site, two-arm, parallel group, patient-randomized, controlled, pilot trial with 3-month follow up, to determine the feasibility, acceptability, and potential effectiveness of sharing audio/video recordings of multidisciplinary ALS clinics with patients and their caregivers. We will recruit 24 patients with ALS and their caregivers over a recruitment period of 1 year. We are primarily interested in determining the feasibility of the trial and acceptability of the audio/video intervention. We will also explore the impact on the patients' ability to self-manage their care as well as exploratory outcomes, at baseline (T0 = pre-visit), at T1 (1 week), and at T2 (3 months).
