Impact of the Corrie Lipids Digital Health Program on Lipid Optimization

March 13, 2026 updated by: Johns Hopkins University

Corrie Lipids Program: Optimizing LDL-Cholesterol by Improving Awareness, Access, and Achievement

The overall objective is to evaluate the effectiveness and implementation of the Corrie Lipids Program, a comprehensive digital health initiative designed to address critical gaps in lipid-lowering as a component of ASCVD treatment by delivering an intervention that combines a patient-facing smartphone app, clinician education and coaching, and seamless incorporation into clinical workflows.

Researchers plan to assess this multicenter digital health initiative in approximately 1,000 adults with uncontrolled LDL-C and elevated ASCVD risk using the Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance (RE-AIM) framework. The study will examine whether the program improves LDL-C goal attainment, app engagement, prescribing patterns, and LDL-C monitoring, while also identifying barriers and facilitators to implementation across sites.
