About this study

Official title: Identifying Barriers to and optiMizing In-hosPitaL usE of Evidenced-based Medical thErapies for patieNTs With Cardio-Renal-Metabolic Disease

This study will be a prospective randomized implementation trial for patients hospitalized with heart failure, chronic kidney disease, and/or type 2 diabetes mellitus within Duke University Medical Center. The primary hypothesis is that a virtual quality improvement-based consult intervention will improve the rate of in-hospital evidence-based cardio-renal-metabolic medication use, particularly SGLT2 inhibitor therapy. Approximately 200 patients meeting eligibility criteria will be included in the study. Patients will be assigned into study groups, as defined by randomization of their treating clinician team to receiving the virtual consult versus not.

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of patients prescribed SGLT2i (sodium glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors)

    Measured: hospital discharge (up to approximately 14 days)

  2. Proportion of patients prescribed SGLT2i (sodium glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors)

    Measured: 30 days post-discharge (approximately 6 weeks)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Virtual Consult Intervention in people with Heart Failure and Type 2 Diabetes, run by Duke University 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 4 inclusion and 6 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 20 Sep 2024. 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?

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?

Proportion of patients prescribed SGLT2i (sodium glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors) (time frame: hospital discharge (up to approximately 14 days)). 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?
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 20 Sep 2024.
