Introduction: Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, there was an urgent need for the rapid and equitable translation of knowledge and effective treatments to reach vulnerable populations in response to the ever-shifting pandemic environment. The approval of neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for treatment of outpatient COVID-19 resulted in a need to rapidly design dissemination strategies to increase awareness and equitable access for community members and healthcare providers.
Materials And Methods: We used the Fit to Context (F2C) Framework for Designing for Dissemination and Sustainability to (a) design products such as messages and materials, and (b) disseminate the products.
Background: Diabetes self-management education and support can be effectively and efficiently delivered in primary care in the form of shared medical appointments (SMAs). Comparative effectiveness of SMA delivery features such as topic choice, multi-disciplinary care teams, and peer mentor involvement is not known.
Objective: To compare effects of standardized and patient-driven models of diabetes SMAs on patient-level diabetes outcomes.
Introduction: Multi-level dissemination strategies are needed to increase equitable access to effective treatment for high-risk outpatients with COVID-19, particularly among patients from disproportionately affected communities. Yet assessing population-level impact of such strategies can be challenging.
Methods: In collaboration with key contributors in Colorado, we conducted a retrospective cohort study to evaluate a multi-level dissemination strategy for neutralizing monoclonal antibody (mAb) treatment.
Background: Novel record linkage (RL) methods have the potential to enhance clinical informatics by integrating patient data from multiple sources-including electronic health records, insurance claims, and digital health devices-to inform patient-centered care. Engaging patients and other stakeholders in the use of RL methods in patient-centered outcomes research (PCOR) is a key step in ensuring RL methods are viewed as acceptable, appropriate, and useful. The University of Colorado Record Linkage (CURL) platform empowers the use of RL in PCOR.
