Administering the TRxANSITION Index<\/h2>\n

The TRxANSITION Index is a 10-domain, 32-item questionnaire that is administered by a trained professional. Administering the instrument takes about 8 minutes and can be done either in person or over the phone. The TRxANSITION Index can be administered through our web-based data entry system (requiring a guest ONYEN<\/a>) or with a hard copy of the instrument.<\/p>\n

Scoring the TRxANSITION Index<\/h2>\n

Each item is scored individually as either 1 (adequate knowledge\/skill mastery), 0.5 (some knowledge\/skill attainment), or 0 (no knowledge\/skill attainment). Subscale scores are calculated by dividing the patient’s score by the total possible subscale score. Subscale scores are then combined to create a total score, ranging from 0 to 10. Individuals administering the TRxANSITION Index should familiarize themselves with the scoring guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Using the TRxANSITION Index to Inform Care<\/h2>\n

The TRxANSITION Index has different areas of concentration by age<\/a>. Providers can compare age appropriate focus areas to their patient’s subscale scores to determine the topics in which the patient may need additional education. TRxANSITION Index\u2122 Educational Handouts<\/a> can be given to patients to provide additional information related to each domain of the TRxANSITION Index.<\/p>\n
