Published by Elsevier Inc; METHODS: Longitudinal, two-arm, randomized controlled trial with intent-to-treat design recruited from 5 hospital-based outpatient HIV clinics in Washington, DC. Adults living with HIV and their surrogate decision makers (N=233 dyads) were randomized to either an intensive facilitated two-session FACE ACP (Next Steps: Respecting Choices goals of care conversation and Five Wishes advance directive) or Healthy Living Control (conversations about developmental/relationship history and nutrition); OBJECTIVE: To examine the efficacy of FAmily-CEntered (FACE) ACP in increasing advance care planning and advance directive documentation in the medical record; RESULTS: Patients (n=223) mean age: 51 years, 56% male, 86% African-American. One hundred ninety-nine dyads participated in the intervention. At baseline, only 13% of patients had an advance directive. Three months post-intervention, this increased to 59% for the FACE ACP group versus 17% in the control group (p<0.0001). Controlling for race, the odds of having an advance directive in the medical record in the FACE ACP group was approximately 7 times greater than controls (Adjusted Odds Ratio=6.58, 95% C.I: 3.21-13.51, p<0.0001). Among African-Americans randomized to FACE, 58% had completed/documented advance directives versus 20% of controls (p<0.0001) UR - https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jpainsymman.2018.11.014 ER -
