About this study

Official title: HealthMap: a Cluster Randomised Trial of Interactive Health Plans and Self-management Support to Prevent Cardiovascular Disease in People With HIV

The purpose of this study is to improve the health status of people living with HIV in Australia. The overall goal is to rigorously evaluate the impact of interactive health plans and self-management support on chronic condition outcomes in people with HIV.

The specific aims are to:

Aim 1: Using a doctor-level cluster randomised trial, evaluate the effect of interactive health plans and self-management support on coronary heart disease risk and other chronic condition outcomes in people living with HIV.

Aim 2: Evaluate patient and health care provider experiences and acceptability of interactive health plans and self-management support.

Aim 3: Evaluate intervention cost-effectiveness and effect on health service utilisation.

Read the detailed description

Participants will be consenting adults 30 years or older without evidence of cardiovascular disease.The study is a pragmatic cluster randomized controlled trial of a complex health system intervention with doctor as the unit of randomization and individual patient outcomes defined as primary and secondary endpoints. The primary endpoint will be assessed in each participant after 12 months of follow up.The study intervention will consist of a programme specifically designed for the Australian clinical context that helps people with HIV and their health care providers achieve best practice targets for modifiable cardiovascular risk factors. The programme will be available to use during routine consultations to present laboratory results, discuss health priorities and describe goals and actions. Patients will be able to access the interactive health plan from home, with associated additional resources, including online peer support. Phone and online health coaching will be available for prioritised patients wanting to reduce their cardiovascular risk. The primary objective is to determine the effect of the intervention on 10-year risk of non-fatal acute myocardial infarction or coronary heart disease death as estimated by the Framingham risk equation. The secondary objective is to alternative cardiovascular risk scores, individual modifiable cardiovascular risk factors, quality of life, mental health, self- management capacity, process and economic outcomes.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Integrated self management supportOther

    The intervention comprises a consultation engagement, at home exploration, phone and web-based health coaching.

Study groups in NCT02178930
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Integrated self management supportOtherThe intervention involves the introduction of an interactive chronic disease support platform into doctor-patient consultations, in addition to a self-management support program. Specifically, the intervention comprises the following interlinked components: within consultation engagement; at home exploration; phone and web-based health coaching.
Receives: Other: Integrated self management support
Usual careNo interventionThe control group will receive usual care from study sites until all study participants have completed 12 months of follow up from their Baseline Visits. At this point access to the study intervention will be expanded to include control sites.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The primary study endpoint is 10-year risk of non-fatal acute myocardial infarction or coronary heart disease death as estimated by the Framingham risk equation

    Coronary heart disease Framingham risk equation is obtained from: Wilson P, D'Agostino R, Levy D, Belanger A, Silbershatz H, et al. (1998) Prediction of Coronary Heart Disease Using Risk Factor Categories. Circulation 97: 1837 - 1847.

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (14)
  1. Cardiovascular risk relative to age as measured by the Joint European Taskforce relative risk tables

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Cardiovascular risk as estimated by an HIV-specific risk score

    (Worm Signe W, Sabin C, Weber R, Reiss P, El Sadr W, et al. (2010) Risk of Myocardial Infarction in Patients with HIV Infection Exposed to Specific Individual Antiretroviral Drugs from the 3 Major Drug Classes: The Data Collection on Adverse Events of Anti-HIV Drugs (D:A:D) Study. The Journal of Infectious Diseases 201: 318-330.)

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Smoking status as measured by self-report and verified by urinary cotinine in those describing quitting during the study

    Measured: 12 months

  4. Fasting total cholesterol and total cholesterol:HDL ratio

    (measured by serum assay)

    Measured: 12 months

  5. Systolic blood pressure

    (using a sphygmomanometer)

    Measured: 12 months

  6. Body mass index and waist circumference

    Body mass index (calculated by weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared; these are measured using a scale and stadiometer) and waist circumference (measured using a flexible steel measuring tape)

    Measured: 12 months

  7. Proportion of patients achieving Australian cardiovascular risk factor management targets

    (http://strokefoundation.com.au/healthprofessionals/ clinical-guidelines/guidelines-for-the-assessment-andmanagement- of-absolute-cvd-risk/)

    Measured: 12 months

  8. Quality of life as measured by the AQoL-4D instrument

    Measured: 12 months

  9. Mental health status as measured by the DASS instrument

    Measured: 12 months

  10. Self-management capacity as measured by the heiQ instrument

    Measured: 12 months

  11. Proportion of patients with HIV virological suppression

    (Below the lower limit of detection of the assay used )

    Measured: 12 months

  12. Proportion of patients achieving HIV quality of care measures

    Measured: 12 months

  13. Evaluation of the intervention program (intervention arm only)

    using a questionnaire designed specifically for this study and using structured interviews.

    Measured: 12 months

  14. Health care provider related: Evaluation of the intervention program intervention arm only)

    Evaluation of the intervention program (intervention arm only) using a questionnaire designed specifically for this study and using structured interviews.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Integrated self management support in people with HIV and Cardiovascular Disease, run by Karen Klassen at 14 sites in Australia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Aug 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 sites in Australia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The primary study endpoint is 10-year risk of non-fatal acute myocardial infarction or coronary heart disease death as estimated by the Framingham risk equation (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02178930, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Aug 2017.
