Conditions
Ischemic Heart Disease

Procedure: GeriKit Mobile Application
Registration Number
NCT05788666
Lead Sponsor
NYU Langone Health
Brief Summary

This study seeks to expand the use of the NYU GeriKit mobile application ("app") in a diverse range of settings to better phenotype older patients, which will enhance both research and patient care.

Detailed Description

This is a single-center proof of concept study of geriatric impairments and feasibility metrics through the use of the GeriKit software application in older adults with ischemic heart disease at the NYU Langone Medical Center. The GeriKit mobile application was developed to make geriatric assessment instruments easily accessible to clinicians who do not have subspecialty training in geriatrics. The GeriKit app has been used clinically but is untested in research settings.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Incidence of Mortality or Hospital ReadmissionMonth 6

Binary outcome; determined by review of patient electronic health record (EHR) data at Month 6.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Seattle Angina Questionnaire Short-Form (SAQ-7)Month 6

7-item questionnaire assessing functional status, angina and disease-specific health-related quality of life (HRQoL) over a four-week recall period. Responses generate a summary score ranging from 0-100, where 100 = full health, and 0 = worst health.

12-Item Short Form Survey (SF-12) ScoreMonth 6

The SF-12 is a self-reported outcome measure assessing the impact of health on an individual's everyday life. It is often used as a quality-of-life measure. SF-12 consists of 12 questions that are scored in various ways. The total score range is 12-48; the higher the score, the higher the score, the better the physical and mental health functioning.
