Scale-up of HIV preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a key strategy of the U.S. initiative to end the HIV epidemic, but healthcare providers lack tools to support PrEP discussions and prescribing for patients likely to benefit. This research will evaluate whether integrating automated tools into electronic health records to help providers efficiently and equitably identify potential candidates for PrEP, discuss PrEP, and prescribe PrEP can improve PrEP initiation and persistence in safety-net community health centers. It will achieve this by conducting a stepped-wedge trial of a decision support tool with an embedded HIV prediction model to identify patients likely to benefit from PrEP. The intervention will be delivered to healthcare providers in 16 community health centers within the national OCHIN network.

The purpose of this research is to evaluate the overall use of the WounDx medical device in a clinical setting, such as a hospital. The WounDx device is experimental and not yet approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). WounDx uses information about a patient's wound to generate a report that a surgeon may use to help determine when to close or not close the wound. The final decision to close the wound remains with the surgeon. The results from this pilot trial will inform a larger pivotal trial.

EHR Nudges for Overmedication

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
High-risk polypharmacy is common among older adults in the United States, is particularly dangerous for individuals with dementia or cognitive impairment, and is associated with harms such as adverse drug reactions, falls, and higher costs of care. This project aims to test in a pragmatic clinic-randomized controlled trial two electronic health record-based behavioral economic nudges to help clinicians reduce high-risk polypharmacy among their older adult patients and in the subgroup with dementia or cognitive impairment. The main questions this trial aims to answer are: Aim 1: To evaluate the effects of an EHR-based commitment nudge, a justification nudge, and the combination of both nudges on a composite measure of high-risk polypharmacy via a pragmatic randomized controlled trial. The investigators will use cluster randomization in which primary care clinics are randomized to receive 0, 1, or 2 nudges using a factorial design. The nudges will run for 18 months, followed by 12 months of observation to assess persistence of effects. Aim 2: To qualitatively and quantitatively assess clinician experiences with the EHR-based nudges, including their acceptability and effects on workflow. At the conclusion of the intervention period, the investigators will perform semi-structured interviews and field a clinician survey.

iREACH is a five-year NIH funded study aimed at assessing and improving pediatric clinician adherence to the 2017 NIAID Prevention of Peanut Allergy (PPA) Guidelines. iREACH has been developed as an electronic health record (EHR) integrated Clinical Decision Support (CDS) tool together with educational modules on the PPA guidelines to assist clinicians in implementing the 2017 NIAID PPA Guidelines. A practice-based, two-arm, cluster-randomized clinical trial will evaluate the effectiveness of iREACH in increasing pediatric clinician adherence to the PPA Guidelines and explore the end-goal of reducing peanut allergy incidence by age 2.5 years in the intervention vs control group. This study has the potential to: 1) provide evidence regarding the effectiveness of iREACH in promoting clinical processes and outcomes related to the PPA Guidelines, 2) provide important insight about practice-based implementation of PPA Guidelines by pediatric clinicians, allergists and caregivers, and 3) facilitate rapid, widespread implementation of PPA Guidelines and reduce peanut allergy incidence across the US.

An increasing number of guideline-directed medical therapies (GDMT) have been developed for patients with chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). When used in combination at recommended doses, patients often experience significant improvements in cardiac function, quality of life, and survival.1,2 However, GDMT underuse occurs for the vast majority of patients with HFrEF. Two recent trials demonstrated improved GDMT prescribing during a clinic visit, each using automated delivery of a patient-centered decision support tool to promote a proactive and holistic approach to prescribing: EPIC-HF (NCT03334188) tested a brief video and checklist document sent to patients just prior to a clinic visit encouraging them to work with their clinicians to make at least 1 positive change to their GDMT; PROMPT-HF (NCT05433220) tested tailored electronic health record (EHR) alerts for GDMT intensification delivered to clinicians during clinic visits. The current I-I-CAPTAIN-HF study aims to broadly implement and test the EPIC-HF patient-facing and PROMPT-HF clinician-facing tools for HFrEF medication intensification at 5 health systems around the country through a pragmatic cluster-randomized implementation-effectiveness trial. This will occur through an initial phase of adaptation of the 2 tools at each health system. Once ready, the 2 tools will be tested using a 2x2 randomization at the clinician-level. In parallel, formal assessment of the implementation of EPIC-HF and PROMPT-HF will work to understand the most effective means of intervention design and delivery, as well as adaptations due to contextual factors to optimize use.

Living donor (LD) kidney transplantation is the optimal treatment for patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). However, LDs take on a higher risk of future ESKD themselves. African American (AA) LDs have an even greater, 3.3-fold, risk of ESKD than white LDs post-donation. Because evidence suggests that Apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1) risk variants contribute to this greater risk, transplant nephrologists are increasingly using APOL1 testing to evaluate LD candidates of African ancestry. However, nephrologists do not consistently perform genetic counseling with LD candidates about APOL1 due to a lack of knowledge and skill in counseling about APOL1. Without proper counseling, APOL1 testing will magnify LD candidates' decisional conflict about donating, jeopardizing their informed consent. Given their elevated risk of ESRD post-donation, and AAs' widely-held cultural concerns about genetic testing, it is ethically critical to protect AA LD candidates' safety through APOL1 testing in a culturally competent manner to improve informed decisions about donating. No transplant programs have integrated APOL1 testing into LD evaluation in a culturally competent manner. Clinical "chatbots," mobile apps that use artificial intelligence to provide genetic information to patients and relieve constraints on clinicians' time, can improve informed treatment decisions and reduce decisional conflict. The chatbot "Gia," created by a medical genetics company, can be adapted to any condition. However, no chatbot on APOL1 is currently available. No counseling training programs are available for nephrologists to counsel AA LDs about APOL1 and donation in a culturally competent manner. Given the shortage of genetic counselors, increasing nephrologists' genetic literacy is critical to integrating genetic testing into practice. The objective of this study is to culturally adapt and evaluate the effectiveness of an APOL1 testing program for AA LDs at two transplant centers serving large AA LD populations (Chicago, IL, and Washington, DC). The APOL1 testing program will evaluate the effect of the culturally competent testing, chatbot, and counseling on AA LD candidates' decisional conflict about donating, preparedness for decision-making, willingness to donate, and satisfaction with informed consent. The specific aims are to: 1. Adapt Gia and transplant counseling to APOL1 for use in routine clinical practice 2. Evaluate the effectiveness of this intervention on decisional conflict, preparedness, and willingness to donate in a pre-post design 3. Evaluate the implementation of this intervention into clinical practice by using the RE-AIM framework to longitudinally evaluate nephrologist counseling practices and LDs' satisfaction with informed consent. The impact of this study will be the creation of a model for APOL1 testing of AA LDs, which can then be implemented nationally via implementation science approaches. APOL1 will serve as a model for integrating culturally competent genetic testing into transplant and other practices to improve patient informed consent.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if electronic health record (EHR) nudges (changes to the EHR that do not restrict freedom of choice or alter incentives) can reduce Z-drug prescribing in primary care clinics for patients with insomnia. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Can Z-drug prescribing be reduced by setting the dispense quantity default of new Z-drug orders in the EHR to 10 pills with 0 refills? 2. Can Z-drug prescribing be reduced by an EHR alert that suggests clinicians remove a Z-drug and/or add an evidence-based behavioral treatment for insomnia, followed by a request to justify their reasoning if the suggestion is not followed? 3. Does combining these two nudges reduce Z-drug prescribing? Researchers will compare each nudge individually and in combination to an guideline education control group to see if each nudge (separately and in combination) can reduce Z-drug prescribing. Clinician-participants will: 1. Complete an introductory educational module about treating insomnia and relevant EHR changes. 2. Complete their routine patient visits. 3. Either experience EHR changes when prescribing Z-drugs, including a Z-drug dispense quantity default of 10 pills for new orders, a prompt to remove or justify Z-drug orders, both, or neither.

The EAPOC-COPD study is a stepped wedge cluster randomized controlled trial (SW-RCT) designed to evaluate the effectiveness of the Evidence at the Point-of-Care for COPD (EAPOC-COPD) system, a digital clinical decision support system (CDSS) integrated into primary care electronic medical records (EMRs). The system aims to improve COPD management by providing personalized pharmacotherapy recommendations, symptom and risk assessments, and self-management action plans, based on patient-reported data. Study Design: Six primary care sites in Ontario, Canada will transition from usual care to EAPOC-COPD-supported care in a staggered manner over 56 weeks. Each site will serve as its own control during the pre-intervention period. Primary Objective: To assess the impact of EAPOC-COPD on guideline-aligned pharmacotherapy optimization for COPD, measured by the proportion of patients with medication escalation. Secondary Objectives: Evaluate improvements in symptom/risk assessments (mMRC, CAT), COPD action plan delivery, influenza vaccination, smoking cessation support provision, pulmonary rehabilitation referrals, and COPD symptom burden Process Measures: Study investigators will also measure provider and patient uptake, satisfaction, and system feasibility will be assessed through EMR data audits, patient/provider surveys, and system usage analytics Population: All prescribers at the six primary care sites (physicians and nurse practitioners) will be eligible. The study will involve patients with physician-diagnosed COPD, identified through EMR searches. Data Collection: Clinical outcomes will be obtained through chart reviews and data from the Canadian Primary Care Sentinel Surveillance Network (CPCSSN), where available. Patient-reported outcomes will be captured via questionnaires through the patient app/portal. Sample Size: An estimated 1860 COPD patients will be seen during the study. With an expected baseline medication escalation rate of 13%, the study is powered to detect an 8% absolute increase (assuming an Intra Class Correlation (ICC) =0.1). Analysis: A generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) will assess primary and secondary outcomes, accounting for time trends, clustering, and the stepped roll out. Significance: This trial will generate real-world evidence on the effectiveness of a point-of-care digital tool in closing COPD care gaps, with potential for large-scale primary care implementation.

Statins reduce cardiovascular events and mortality, but only 30% of eligible primary care patients nationally are on statins. Clinical decision support (CDS) interventions in the electronic health record (EHR) can deliver education to providers and increase adherence to guideline recommendations via many potential forms of delivery. Interruptive alerts are an effective form of CDS but disrupt clinician workflow and increase alert fatigue in an age of clinician burnout and frustration with the EHR. Non-interruptive reminders are proposed as an alternative method of delivering CDS; however, they require active pursuit by the provider, and their effectiveness compared to interruptive alerts has not been rigorously studied. The investigators propose a randomized trial comparing the effect of interruptive vs. non-interruptive reminders displayed to clinicians to increase statin prescribing in primary care clinics.

Scale-up of HIV preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a key strategy of the federal initiative to end the HIV epidemic. However, healthcare providers lack tools to identify patients who are at increased risk for HIV infection and thus likely to benefit from PrEP. This pilot study will test the hypothesis that an electronic health record (EHR)-based clinical decision support system that incorporates an HIV risk prediction model can help providers identify patients at increased risk for HIV infection and improve PrEP prescribing in safety-net community health centers. The clinical decision support system will be implemented in the EHR at 2-3intervention clinics, while 2 control clinics will receive standard of care. The primary outcome is PrEP prescriptions. Other key metrics of PrEP-related care to be assessed include medication persistence, adherence to monitoring guidelines for PrEP, and rates of HIV/STI testing and diagnoses. The expected outcome is the foundation for a large-scale cluster randomized trial to test whether EHR-based clinical decision support tools for PrEP can improve PrEP prescribing and prevent new HIV infections in a national network of community health centers.

This study is designed to test two new risk scores - one designed to predict a patient's four-hour risk of developing sepsis and one designed to predict a patient's four-hour risk of deterioration (cardiac arrest, death, unplanned ICU transfer, or rapid response team call). The goal of this study is to improve provider awareness of a patient's risk of these two negative outcomes by providing them with new risk scores. The primary outcome will be the time from when the risk score becomes elevated to when vital signs such as heart rate or blood pressure are measured, suggesting an increased awareness.

The goal of this experimental study is to learn whether different types of best practice advisories (BPAs) that direct clinicians to reference clinical guidelines embedded in the electronic health record (EHR) increase the delivery of evidence-based care in children presenting to the hospital with bronchiolitis. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do BPAs improve clinicians' delivery of guideline-concordant care in bronchiolitis? * Do interruptive BPAs improve guideline-concordant care of bronchiolitis more than non-interruptive BPAs? Researchers will compare the treatment and outcomes of patients whose clinicians did not receive a BPA, to those whose clinicians received a non-interruptive BPA, to those whose clinicians received an interruptive BPA. Patients will continue to receive standard hospital care for bronchiolitis. Clinicians will: * retain access to an EHR-embedded clinical guideline for bronchiolitis care * be exposed to either no BPA, a non-interruptive BPA, or an interruptive BPA promoting the EHR-embedded clinical guideline (randomized per patient encounter)

GDMT Strategies for Heart Failure

Danville, Pennsylvania
Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is associated with high mortality and adverse events (hospitalization or urgent outpatient visits for HF), along with diminished quality of life. Despite convincing data that evidenced-based, guideline-directed medical therapies (GDMT) improve mortality and heart failure-related events, there remains insufficient utilization of these life-saving drugs (evidence-based beta-blockers (EBBB), angiotensin-neprilysin inhibitors (ARNI)/ angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi)/ angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB), mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRA) and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) in patients with HFrEF. The primary objective of this study is to implement and evaluate a multifaceted, interdisciplinary intervention to improve GDMT use, reduce mortality, and reduce future heart failure events in patients with HFrEF.

In this study, the investigators will deploy a software-based clinical decision support tool (eCARTv5) into the electronic health record (EHR) workflow of multiple hospital wards. eCART's algorithm is designed to analyze real-time EHR data, such as vitals and laboratory results, to identify which patients are at increased risk for clinical deterioration. The algorithm specifically predicts imminent death or the need for intensive care unit (ICU) transfer. Within the eCART interface, clinical teams are then directed toward standardized guidance to determine next steps in care for elevated-risk patients. The investigators hypothesize that implementing such a tool will be associated with a decrease in ventilator utilization, length of stay, and mortality for high-risk hospitalized adults.

While blood clots after major cancer surgery are common and harmful to patients, the medications to decrease blood clot risk are seldom used after patients leave the hospital despite the recommendation of multiple professional medical societies. The reason why these medications are seldom prescribed is not well understood. The main questions this study aims to answer are: * Does surgeon education paired with an electronic medical record based decision support tool improve the guideline concordant prescription of pharmacologic venous thromboembolism after abdominopelvic cancer surgery? * Does dedicated patient education regarding blood clots at the time of hospital discharge after abdominopelvic cancer surgery improve understanding of the risk of venous thromboembolism and adherence to pharmacologic prophylaxis? The investigators will study these questions using a stepped-wedge randomized trial where groups of surgeons will use a tool integrated to the electronic medical record to educate them on the individualized patient risks of blood clots after major cancer surgery and inform them regarding guidelines for preventative medicines. Utilization of the medications before and after using the tool will be compared. Patients will be administered a questionnaire assessing their awareness of blood clots as a risk after cancer surgery. For those prescribed medications to reduce blood clot risk after leaving the hospital, the questionnaire will evaluate whether they took the medications as prescribed. Survey results will be evaluated before and after implementation of education on blood clot risk at the time of hospital discharge.

Most experts advocate for early detection of cognitive impairment (CI) so that patients and caregivers can be prepared for making difficult decisions and to improve quality of life, but studies show that screening alone isn't sufficient to change clinician actions related to early detection. Using predictive modelling developed with machine learning methods and sophisticated clinical decision support (CDS) tools, it is possible to identify patients at elevated risk for CI and make it much easier for primary care to engage and support patients and caregivers in meaningful care planning. The goal of this study is to implement and evaluate a low-cost, highly scalable CI-CDS system integrated within the electronic health record that has high potential to improve early CI detection and care and translate massive public and private sector investments in health informatics into tangible health benefits for large numbers of people.

The goal of this clinical trial is to address care gaps for participants at high risk of breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC), or Lynch syndrome (LS) because of testing positive for specific genetic variants. A patient-centered clinical decision support (PC-CDS) tool will help identify participants with genetic variations and display recommendations for referrals and testing to the clinician and participant at a primary care visit. The main question the study aims to answer is: - Does clinical decision support for participants with hereditary cancer syndromes improve the use of evidence-based cancer prevention care. Participants being seen in the PC-CDS group are compared to participants being seen in usual care (UC) to see if they are up to date on guideline-based cancer prevention care and to see if participants in the PC-CDS group report more shared decision making and higher rates of self-management of their genetic cancer risks. Participants will be asked to answer survey questions.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Clinical Decision Support clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Clinical Decision Support clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Clinical Decision Support trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Clinical Decision Support is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval.
