“…AD completion rates vary widely among studies. For example, in studies of healthcare professionals, AD completion rates range from 20% (Badzek et al, 2006) to 36% (Black & Emmet, 2006;Lipson, Hausman, Higgins, & Burant, 2004). Studies focusing on patients also vary widely in reported AD comple-tion rates.…”

The purpose of the study was to develop four questionnaires based on the transtheoretical model (TTM) to assess the behavior, completing a healthcare proxy (HCP). The aims were to (a) operationalize the four TTM constructs for completing a HCP and (b) evaluate the psychometric properties of the questionnaires. The questionnaires were constructed and content validity established using an expert panel. Internal consistency values for each questionnaire and subscales within each questionnaire were >.79. Confirmatory factor analysis provided evidence that decisional balance and the processes of change questionnaires each contained two factors. Our data support validity and reliability of the TTM questionnaires related to HCP completion.

“…These findings may be related to increased confidence following their own completion of an AD. Black and Emmet, 13 in a study of nurses working with geriatric patients in pulmonary or cardiac units in two hospitals in the northeastern United States, also found that nurses with the experience of having completed their own AD were more likely to initiate conversation about ADs with patients. Although patient AD completion was not an outcome studied, Duke and Thompson 26 found that nurses who had completed their own AD were more likely to assist a family member in AD completion.…”

“…7,[10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24] This potential role has led to investigations of nurses' knowledge, attitudes, and skills related to ADs, the Patient Self-determination Act, and state laws related to ADs. 10,11,13,14,16,17,21,23,[25][26][27] Registered nurse (RN) populations studied in the United States included emergency room nurses, 10,23 oncology nurses, 23,25 critical care nurses, 11,23 members of a state nurses' association, 14 a state registry, 17 advanced practice nurses in oncology, 24 and nurses in medical centers and acute care settings. 13,16,17,26,27 Common findings were that RNs felt inadequately educated about ADs and laws governing AD use and that nurses would benefit from more ADrelated education.…”

Consistent with the nurses' perception, knowledge was low to moderate across those studies that measured it.…”
