简要总结
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.

入选标准
- •The study subjects are potential users of the CDS, specifically clinicians with prescribing privileges who practice at one of the health system's (UCHealth) outpatient cardiology clinics. Because we are observing their prescribing behaviors in a virtual care setting (phone or video), we are also evaluating patient characteristics which could influence their prescribing decisions.
排除标准
- •Clinicians who do not practice in a UCHealth cardiology clinic.
研究组 & 干预措施
Iteratively designed (new) clinical decision support tool for virtual visits
The new, iteratively designed clinical decision support tool includes the traditional CDS along with links to supportive tip-sheets, which include one for providers on how to add an order for patients to upload vitals in their electronic health record, and one that walks patients through how to upload vitals on their own.
干预措施: Iteratively designed (new) clinical decision support tool for virtual visits (Other)
Traditional clinical decision support tool
The traditional CDS tool is the usual care intervention, and does not include links to tip-sheets to support virtual patient care.

结局指标
主要结局
Number of CDS alerts resulting in the prescription of a recommended medication
时间窗: 6 months
The primary outcome is number of CDS alerts that resulted in the prescription of the medication recommended by the CDS alert. Recommended medications include either evidence-based beta blockers, sacubitril/valsartan, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists or sodium/glucose cotransport 2 inhibitors. Prescriptions will be based on actual prescription orders instead of clinician-stated responses, given the latter may overestimate effectiveness.
次要结局
- Number of patients the CDS alerted for(6 months)
- Number of times a prescriber ordered at-home vitals(6 months)
- Number of patients who upload their vitals in the patient portal(9 months)
- Number of alerts that were not outright dismissed(6 months)
- Number of prescription orders for guideline directed medical therapy (GDMT) for heart failure(6 months)
