Rapid Adoption in Clinical Care Settings

  • New Methods

– Item Response Theory – Computer Adaptive Testing

  • New Tools

– Patient-Reported Outcomes Information System (PROMIS)

  • New Technology

– April 3, 2010

SLIDE 3

New Technology: The iPad Era (2010)

Before

  • Often Paper
  • Closed Systems
  • High Hardware Costs,

in-house development

  • Patient-Level Use Only

After

  • Electronic
  • Web-Based
  • Lower Costs & Patient

Awareness

  • Clinic & Population-Level

Monitoring

PRO Use in Clinical Care

  • Individual Care

– Patient fills out a PRO – Scores are reviewed by Clinician – Examples: Depression Screening, Symptom Monitoring during Chemotherapy, Decision Support

  • Clinic-Level Evaluation

– Quality of care evaluation – Quality Improvement – Example: % Screened for Depression

Data Collection Methods

  • 1. Paper Collection
  • 2. Independent Electronic System
  • 3. Internal Collection within EHR system
slide-6
SLIDE 6

PRO Collection Method #1

  • Paper Collection

– Patient fills out a paper PRO measure

– All scoring is done manually by staff

  • Care Integration

– Discussed in care visit – Uploaded to EHR

  • Scanned Paper Form
  • Manual Data Entry
  • Manual PRO Documentation in the Clinic Note
slide-7
SLIDE 7

Strengths/Weaknesses

  • Best suited for simple screening tasks

– Quick Scoring Screening Measures for Immediate documentation or use. – Quality Evaluations based on screening tasks being performed.

  • May be preferred by some patients
  • Score review and reporting options are

limited

PRO Collection Method: #2

  • Independent Electronic System

– Stand-alone system – Electronic PRO collection – 3rd party vendor – Developed internally

  • AKA…

– ePRO – Side Car – Wrap Around

slide-12
SLIDE 12

ePRO Care Integration

  • Highly Customizable
  • Visual Formats and Measures
  • Collection Methods (Apps, Web)
  • Staff Management Support and Tools
  • Communication with EHR systems
  • Data pushed to the EHR in real-time
  • Data linked to discrete EHR data fields
  • EHR data pulled to inform assessment
slide-13
SLIDE 13

Strengths/ Weakness

  • Often built with symptom monitoring and

decision support goals.

  • Systems require more steps to log-on,

administer and review content.

  • Data Integration with an EHR system is
  • ften limited

– Difficulty identifying eligible patients – Difficulty pushing information into EHR system

Lombardi Electronic Distress Screening Program

  • All new patients

screened in clinic after check-in

  • High scores are:

– Followed up on by a social worker – Available for review in the EHR.

Integration into EHR

PRO Collection Method #3

  • Internal Collection within EHR system

– PRO assessment is collected as an integral part of the EHR – Often assessed through a patient portal – Structured data (responses and total score) are accessible

slide-18
SLIDE 18

Strengths/ Weakness

  • Allows for real-time integration of content

for clinical decision-making

  • Easier aggregation of PROs alongside
  • ther standard performance measures
  • PRO content and display options can be

limited.

– Assessment – Score Report and Interpretation

SLIDE 21

Lurie Screening Initiative

  • PROMIS CAT

– Pain – Fatigue – Physical Function – Depression – Anxiety

  • Practical Needs &

Other Concerns:

– Social work needs – Informational needs – Nutritional status Total Length: ~ 40 items (8-10 mins) Frequency: Once every 30 days paired with visit

Pearman et al, 2016; Wagner et al, Cancer, 121(6): 927-934, 2015

slide-22
SLIDE 22

Integration Into Clinical Care

  • Assessment results populated in Epic

– Other Orders tab – .dot phrases for charting

  • Messaging for severe symptoms

– Based on PROMIS T-Score Severe Cut Points. – MD & RN messages when Anxiety > 65 – MD & RN messages when Pain > 70

Discussion & Conclusion

  • Strengths and Weaknesses of each PRO

system depends on:

– Purpose – Availability – Cost & Expertise Available – Workflow Considerations
