Improved Cardiovascular Risk Reduction to Enhance Rural Primary Care (ICARE)
Tutkimuksen yleiskatsaus
Tila
Interventio / Hoito
Yksityiskohtainen kuvaus
The use of clinical pharmacists in primary care has improved the control of several chronic cardiovascular conditions. However, many private physician practices lack the resources to implement team-based care with pharmacists. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether a centralized, remote, clinical pharmacy service could improve guideline adherence and secondary measures of cardiovascular risk in primary care offices in rural and small communities.
This study was a prospective trial in 12 family medicine offices cluster randomized to either the intervention or usual care. The intervention was delivered for 12 months, and subjects had research visits at baseline and 12 months. The primary outcome was adherence to guidelines, and secondary outcomes included changes in key cardiovascular risk factors and preventative health measures. We enrolled 302 subjects.

Aseet ja interventiot
Osallistujaryhmä / Arm |
Interventio / Hoito |
|---|---|
|
Kokeellinen: PHCVRS intervention
Each participant will receive communication with a clinical pharmacist for 12 months to decrease risk of developing cardiovascular disease.
|

Each participant in this arm will also have access to an online Personal Health Record that can be used to track medications, diagnosed conditions and laboratory values related to cardiovascular disease risk.
Participant will be able to access an online Personal Health Record for tracking medications and diagnosed conditions
|
|
Muut: Usual care/Personal Health Record
Will receive usual medical care plus access to an online Personal Health Record, where the participant can document medications and diagnosed conditions.

Mitä tutkimuksessa mitataan?
Ensisijaiset tulostoimenpiteet
Tulosmittaus |
Toimenpiteen kuvaus |
Aikaikkuna |
|---|---|---|
|
Adherence of medical regimen/treatment to all of the Guideline Advantage criteria that apply.
Aikaikkuna: 12 months for each participant
|
The primary outcome measure was adherence to the GA criteria as a surrogate for quality of care because each subject had varying gaps in guideline-concordant care, depending on their specific cardiovascular conditions and preventative care needs.

12 months for each participant

IPD-jaon aikakehys
IPD-jaon käyttöoikeuskriteerit
All reviews for data are coordinated by BioLINCC and are performed by the NHLBI Data Repository Program Officer. The review includes:
- Appropriateness of the proposed research for the dataset(s) being requested
- Completion of the IRB requirements to obtain the datasets.
Requests that include datasets must have IRB approval (waiver, expedited review, convened review). Some datasets require that the researcher's IRB provide an expedited (Chairman) or convened review for the proposed project. In these cases, an IRB approval is needed because although obvious identifiers have been redacted, the wealth of individual level data that remain (demographic, anthropometric, medical history, personal history, outcomes) means that the possibility of direct identification of a study subject cannot be eliminated.
Consult the BIOLINCC website (https://biolincc.nhlbi.nih.gov/home/) or access the handbook at https://biolincc.nhlbi.nih.gov/media/guidelines/handbook.pdf for more information.
