The Use of a Computer Program to Help Primary Care Providers Treat Patients With Type 2 Diabetes (CADS)

24 november 2015 uppdaterad av: Alicia L. Warnock, Walter Reed National Military Medical Center

The Use of a Computer Assisted Diabetes Decision Support (CADS) System to Improve Outcomes in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Who Are Treated by Primary Care Providers

The primary purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of CADS by primary care providers (PCPs) for their patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) changes the quality of care relative to a "usual care" group in terms of objective outcome measures of glycemic control (e.g., A1c, mean blood glucose, frequency of hypoglycemic episodes) and in terms of subjective ratings by patients.

Status

Avslutad

Detaljerad beskrivning

The CADS software integrates the patient's home blood glucose data with appropriate laboratory data (e.g. A1c, liver function, kidney function), demographic data (age, gender), current and previous medications, and active/inactive medical diagnoses. The software makes a recommendation about what medication changes are appropriate with potential alternates. Providers with their patients are block randomized into CADS or "Usual Care" for 1 year.

Intervention / Behandling
Experimentell: Computer-Assisted Decision Support
These providers will use the CADS program to treat their enrolled patients.
The CADS software makes a recommendation about what medication changes are appropriate with potential alternates. CADS providers will either "accept" or "reject" the recommendation by the software.Providers with their patients are block randomized into CADS or "Usual Care" for 1 year. Patients associated with a CADS provider will upload their blood glucose data weekly and perform a 7-point glucose profile once per month. They will report major hypoglycemic events and hospitalizations at the time of their quarterly visit. Those getting "usual care" will be seen quarterly and will do self-monitoring of blood glucose and have A1c tests as determined by the provider but no less than twice a year.
