Improving Prediabetes Cardiovascular Care With EHR-Based Decision Support
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Clinical Decision Support for Pre-diabetes. Completed, enrolled 21,664 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Nearly one in three adults has prediabetes, a condition that substantially increases the risk of heart attacks and stroke. The increased cardiovascular risk associated with prediabetes can be effectively managed by lifestyle changes or medication therapy, but recent data shows few prediabetes patients are treated effectively. In this project, we will adapt, implement, and evaluate a proven electronic health record-linked, web-based clinical decision support system to identify patients with prediabetes and provide prioritized treatment recommendations to patients and providers in a rural health system. The results of the project will provide a template for implementation of more efficient and effective rural healthcare and have the potential to substantially and improve cardiovascular quality of care and clinical outcomes of millions of rural Americans with prediabetes.
