About this study

Official title: Clinical Decision Support for Opioid Use Disorders in Medical Settings: Pilot Usability Testing in an EMR

The primary objective of this pilot study is to program an opioid use disorder (OUD) clinical decision support (CDS) tool for use in an electronic medical record (EMR) and obtain high primary care physician (PCP) usability and acceptability. The OUD-CDS is based on the NIDA-Blending Initiative white paper, "Clinical Decision Support for Opioid Use Disorders: Working Group Report," which itself is based on national evidence-based guidelines (American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM 2015), VA (VA 2015). As such, this pilot study aims to help PCPs achieve accepted standards of care in OUD treatment. The secondary objectives of this pilot study are to evaluate the usefulness of the tool by comparing OUD case-finding, medication-assisted therapy (MAT) and referral patterns pre- and post-CDS deployment for PCPs with and without CDS access.

What participants receive

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

  • Opioid WizardOther

    The Opioid Wizard is an OUD clinical decision support tool for primary care providers.

What is being measured

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

  1. Intervention PCP Confidence in Assessing and Treating OUD

    # of intervention PCPs who report feeling "moderately" or "very" confident in assessing and treating OUD.

    Measured: This outcome measure was calculated at approximately month 10 of the pilot study

  2. Intervention PCP Likeliness to Recommend Use of the OUD-CDS

    # of PCPs with CDS access who rate the OUD-CDS >4 on a 5-point Likert scale of likeliness to recommend use of the tool to their colleagues. The scale ranges from 1-"not at all likely" to 5-"very likely," with higher values representing a higher likelihood of recommending the OUD-CDS to other colleagues.

    Measured: This was calculated after PCP surveys were completed, approximately month 10

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Compare Pre- and Post-intervention Rates of OUD Diagnosis in High-risk Patients.

    Calculate and compare the number of patients diagnosed with OUD pre- and post-intervention. This will be presented as rate of OUD diagnoses per patient year.

    Measured: This was calculated at the end of the pilot study (month 8).

  2. Compare Pre- and Post-intervention Rates of Medication-assisted Therapy (MAT) Use.

    Calculate and compare the rate of MAT use among patients with OUD pre- and post-intervention. This is presented as a pre/post ratio of MAT rx per patient year.

    Measured: This was calculated at the end of the pilot study (month 8).

  3. Compare Post-intervention Referral Patterns Between Intervention and Control Groups

    Calculate and compare how often patients diagnosed with OUD are referred to specialty care or inpatient treatment post-intervention. Compare these rates between intervention and control groups.

    Measured: This was calculated at the end of the pilot study (month 8).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Opioid Wizard in people with Opioid-use Disorder, run by HealthPartners Institute at 1 site in United States.

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 1 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 17 Mar 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Mar 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Intervention PCP Confidence in Assessing and Treating OUD (time frame: This outcome measure was calculated at approximately month 10 of the pilot study). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03559179, 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 17 Mar 2020.
