In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Control - Provider Medication Alert Only and Intervention - Alert + CAP Review AND Enhanced BH Access for Child Behavior Disorders. Completed, enrolled 733 participants across 4 sites.
Detailed Summary
This study tests the effectiveness of an intervention treatment algorithm vs. usual care control in a practical clinical trial. Control arm providers will receive a standard medication alert in the electronic medical record (EMR) when initiating an antipsychotic prescription for an eligible patient. Intervention arm prescribers will receive an interactive medication alert in the EMR when prescribing for eligible patients and the patient and provider will enter the treatment algorithm (provider - medication alert plus clinical review by a child psychiatrist; patient - offer of personalized behavioral health navigation plus bridging therapy when appropriate). The study aims to recruit 800 eligible patients in 4 health systems.
