Assessing Effectiveness and Implementation of an EHR Tool to Assess Heart Health Among Survivors (AH-HA)
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating AH-HA Tool in the EPIC EHR for Breast Neoplasm and 5 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 645 participants across 12 sites.
Detailed Summary
The objective of this hybrid effectiveness-implementation study is to examine the effects of an EHR-based cardiovascular health assessment tool (AH-HA) among breast, prostate, colorectal, endometrial, and Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphoma cancer survivors (N=600) receiving survivorship care in community oncology practices, using a group-randomized trial design (6 intervention practices and 6 usual care practices). Our central hypothesis is that the AH-HA tool will increase (1) cardiovascular health (CVH) discussions among survivors and oncology providers, (2) referrals and visits to primary care and cardiology (care coordination), and (3) cardiovascular (CV) risk reduction and health promotion activities compared to usual care.
