EHR-Based Medication Complete Communication Strategy to Promote Safe Opioid Use (EMC2)
2019年9月23日 更新者：Danielle McCarthy、Northwestern University
The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of an electronic health record based strategy in promoting safe use of opioid medications after an Emergency Department (ED) visit.
The electronic health record (EHR)-based strategy was designed to enhance provider counseling about opioids and to standardize and simplify the information that patients receive.
研究概览
详细说明
Research has shown that patients frequently leave the emergency department without sufficient knowledge about how to safely use their newly prescribed opioid pain relievers. Additionally, educational interventions have the ability to increase patient knowledge about medications. In this study, education interventions will be implemented at the level of the EHR and prompt increased provider counseling with a goal of improving patient knowledge and safe use of opioids after ED discharge.
The investigators will conduct a three-arm provider randomized controlled trial among English-speaking adults prescribed hydrocodone-acetaminophen to evaluate the effectiveness of the EMC2 strategy, with and without Short Message Service (SMS) text reminders, to improve patient understanding and safe use of their medication compared to usual care. This study will be conducted at an urban, academic emergency department (annual volume >85,000 patient visits) in Chicago, Illinois. English speaking patients will be recruited and assessed in person at baseline, and by phone at 2-4 days, 7-14 days, and 1 month after recruitment.

实验性的：EMC2 strategy
Patients of providers randomized to EMC2 arm will received educational tool from the ED to support the understanding and safe use of opioids.
|
Patients of providers randomized to the EMC2 arm will received study related educational tools at the time of their discharge including: (a) health-literacy appropriate MedSheet for hydrocodone-acetaminophen and (b) prescription written with Universal Medication Schedule Take-Wait-Stop language.
Additionally, providers related to the patient will be prompted to counseling the patient including: (c) (c-1) ED providers prompted via EHR, (c-2) PCP prompted to counsel on follow-up visit via automated message and (c-3) pharmacists prompted to counsel via request printed on prescription.

实验性的：EMC2 strategy + SMS Text Reminders
In addition to the EMC2 Strategy Arm, patients will received daily text message reminders about the safe use of opioids for 7 days.

Safe Medication Dosing (Prescription Understanding)
大体时间：7-14 days after enrollment
|
Patient's ability to demonstrate correctly dosing their prescription opioid-acetaminophen pain reliever will be assessed through a series of questions.
Correct dosing will be scored for each medication as yes/no reflecting having demonstrated all of the following: proper dose (# of pills), appropriate spacing (hours between doses), and total daily dose (not exceeding recommended daily dose).

Medication Knowledge
大体时间：7-14 days after enrollment
|
The identification of the medications purpose, side effects, risks, warnings and benefits will be assessed through a structured questionnaire.
Patients will be asked about each of the above via structured, open-ended items.
Additionally, select questions from the validated Patient Opioid Education Measure and patient satisfaction questions will be included.
The Patient Knowledge Score was developed from these questions, with a score range of 0 to 10.
A higher score on the scale represents better patient knowledge.

Proper Medication Use (Medication Diary)
大体时间：10 day medication diary
|
Patients medication use will be assessed through a combination of a home medication diary (collected at 7-14 days post enrollment), pill count, and patient report of medication use.
|
10 day medication diary

Current Opioid Misuse Measure (COMM)
大体时间：7-14 days after enrollment
|
Select questions from the Current Opioid Misuse Measure (COMM) will be used to assess if patients are safely taking their prescription opioids.
