Despite steady increases in obesity prevalence, the more than 12 million obese U.S. adults with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and severe obesity encounter a number of barriers to adopting effective surgical and pharmaceutical treatments, including: (a) both patients and primary care clinicians frequently underestimate the effectiveness and potential benefits of obesity treatments; and (b) both patients and clinicians typically lack access to evidence-based estimates of the patient-specific potential benefits and risks of appropriate obesity treatment options. This project addresses these important obstacles to evidence-based obesity care by providing accurate, patient-specific estimates of benefits and risks of various obesity treatment options to inform shared decision making about obesity treatment. In this project the study team will implement a scalable, web-based point-of-care decision-support intervention in primary care that provides patient-specific estimates of obesity treatment benefits and risks in a randomized trial in 40 primary care clinics with 15,810 eligible patients, and assess intervention impact on (i) appropriate active management of obesity in eligible patients, (ii) weight trajectories, and (iii) patient and clinician satisfaction with the decision support intervention.

The goal of this clinical trial is to see if a software platform can improve cancer screening in young adults with genetic risk for cancer. The trial will also help improve the software platform (Nest). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do Nest users know more about their cancer risks and recommended care than non-users? * Do Nest users have less psychological distress than non-users? * Do Nest users share cancer risks with family and other doctors more than non-users? * Are Nest users more likely than non-users to have up-to-date care plans? Researchers will compare Nest users to non-users to see if the Nest users are more likely to do recommended cancer screening. Participants will: * Have a genetic counseling or follow up visit * Take a post-visit survey * Intervention arm only: use the Nest Patient Navigator * Complete screening and follow-up care recommended by doctors

This clinical trial aims to evaluate the pilot implementation of a machine-learning (ML)-driven clinical decision support (CDS) tool designed to predict opioid overdose risk within the electronic health record (EHR) system at UF Health Internal Medicine and Family Medicine clinics in Gainesville, Florida. The study will use a pre- versus post-implementation design to compare outcomes within clinics, focusing on measures such as naloxone prescribing rates and opioid overdose occurrences. Researchers will also assess the usability, acceptability, and feasibility of the CDS tool through qualitative interviews with primary care clinicians (PCPs) in the participating clinics.

To work best, clinical decision support tools (CDS) must be timed to provide support when healthcare decisions are made, which includes virtual visits (phone or video). Unfortunately, most CDS tools are either missing from virtual visits or not designed for the unique context of virtual visits (e.g., availability of physical assessments and labs, different workflows), which could generate new inequities for patients more likely to use virtual visits. The objective of this study is to test the reach, feasibility and acceptability of a new CDS tool for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) during virtual visits. This new CDS tool was developed through an iterative design process, and will be compared to an existing HFrEF CDS tool in a randomized pilot study at outpatient cardiology clinics throughout the UCHealth system.

Clinical decision support (CDS) tools can 'nudge' clinicians to make the best decisions easy. Although required by "meaningful use" regulations, more than 40% of CDS lead to no change and the remaining lead to improvements that are modest at best. This is because CDS tools often ignore contextual factors and present irrelevant information. Although many tools have undergone patient-specific optimization, 'traditional CDS' are rarely clinician-specific. For example, a traditional CDS tool for beta blockers and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) addresses common prescribing misconceptions by stating asthma is not a contraindication and providing a safe threshold for blood pressure. For clinicians without these misconceptions, these statements are irrelevant and distract from key information. A 'personalized CDS' would evaluate clinician past prescribing patterns to determine whether prescribing misconceptions might exist and then conditionally present information to address those misconceptions. The objective of this research is to create personalized clinician-specific CDS that overcome shortcomings of traditional CDS. The central hypothesis is a personalized CDS that minimizes irrelevant information will lead to a higher rate of prescribing guideline-directed management and therapy (GDMT) for HFrEF compared to a traditional CDS.

Our Practice Advisory (OPA) are essential tools in clinical decision-making. The alerts are designed to guide providers towards evidence-based practices and improve patient outcomes. The focus of this initiative is on Hemoglobin A1c (A1c) and Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) testing, with the goal of addressing unnecessary repeat testing within a 30-day timeframe, which rarely yields significant new insights. Although randomization occurs at the patient level, the primary outcome of this study focuses on provider behavior and decision-making. By focusing on this specific intervention, the study aims to optimize resource use, align test ordering with evidence-based guidelines, and support improved patient outcomes. The results of this evaluation will help refine OPAs and guide broader strategies for implementing clinical decision support tools across healthcare systems.

The proposed study is a quality improvement initiative designed to rigorously evaluate new variations of UCLA Health's proton pump inhibitor (PPI) order panels, building on internal quality improvement efforts to optimize prescribing workflows within the Electronic Health Record (EHR). PPIs are notoriously overprescribed, and the study team has identified that the CareConnect default prescription setting of 90 days with three refills (360 pill days) exceed standard guidelines (in most cases, 60 pill days). It is unclear whether this is the most appropriate workflow. Given that deprescribing PPIs carries minimal risk for most patients, this initiative will assess whether modifying defaulted prescription lengths influences prescribing behavior while ensuring physicians retain full decision-making authority. This evaluation of PPI order panel variations is embedded within UCLA's existing EHR system, ensuring that changes are tested pragmatically within routine workflows. The study aims to determine whether small adjustments to the order panel can better align prescribing patterns with clinical best practices while maintaining physician autonomy.

The overarching goal of this proposal is to integrate patient social risk information into an existing electronic health record (EHR)-based clinical decision support (CDS) tool (CDSv1) to facilitate emergency department (ED)-initiated, social risk-informed opioid use disorder (OUD) medication treatment and ultimately improve treatment adherence and follow up. The investigators will evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the social care-enhanced CDS tool, CDSv2, (compared to CDSv1) at a single study site (UCSF) as an intervention to increase medication treatment adherence and follow up for adult ED patients experiencing opioid use disorder using a mixed-methods, before-after approach.

Why Other Patients Applied

"I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer three months ago, metastatic to my liver, and I have been receiving and responding well to chemotherapy. My blood work revealed that my tumor markers have gone from 2600 in the beginning to 173 as of now, even with the delay in treatment, they are not going up. CT Scans reveal they have been shrinking as well. However, chemo is seriously deteriorating my body. I have 4 more treatments to go in this 12 treatment cycle. I am just interested in learning about my other options, if any are available to me."

"I have dealt with voice and vocal fold issues related to paralysis for over 12 years. This problem has negatively impacted virtually every facet of my life. I am an otherwise healthy 48 year old married father of 3 living. My youngest daughter is 12 and has never heard my real voice. I am now having breathing issues related to the paralysis as well as trouble swallowing some liquids. In my research I have seen some recent trials focused on helping people like me."

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. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Clinical Decision Support medical study?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Clinical Decision Support clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Pediatric eCART for High-Risk Outcomes, Nest Software for Cancer Syndromes and Clinical Decision Support Tool for Wounds to the Power online platform.
