  1. Introduction to Outcomes and Effectiveness Research and Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROs) Professor of Medicine and Public Health, Dept Med, Div GIM/HSR; Dept Health Services, UCLA William Cunningham MD, MPH wcunningham@mednet.ucla.edu HPM 214 http://hpm214.med.ucla.edu/ January 6, 2014

  2. Two Major Teaching Goals: • Measures of Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQOL) • Application of HRQOL measures to outcomes research studies HS 214, Winter 01·09·12

  3. Randomized Trial Design Intervention Group • Measure and Compare Outcomes • HRQOL • Symptoms • Mortality • Complications • Laboratory data • Little control for case-mix required Study Population Randomize Control Group

  4. Analytic Model for anOutcomes Study • Observation of groups • Nonrandomized assignment: intervention vs. control group • Outcomes • HRQOL • Lab data • Symptoms • Mortality • Utilization • *Control for case-mix needed • Severity • Comorbidity • Socio-demographics • other covariates HS 214, Winter 01·09·12

  5. Health Services Background Concepts to HRQOL • Health status, quality of life and health services: - needs, outcomes and policy • Conceptualizing health: HRQOL • Measuring health: HRQOL - reliability, validity, acceptability • Applications to health services research HS 214, Winter 01·09·12

  6. Key Problems With US Health Care System • Access to care • ~ 45 million people without health insurance • Costs of care • expenditures ~ $ 2.7 Trillion • Effectiveness (quality) of care • not all care delivered is beneficial • not all needed care is delivered HS 214, Winter 01·09·12

  7. Behavioral Model of Health Services Utilization (Access) Health Status Predisposing Enabling Need Use Costs Satisfaction Perceived Health Personal Health Practices Personal/family Demographic Evaluated Health Community [Process] Social Structure Health Beliefs Adapted from Andersen 1968

  8. Defining Health Outcomes • Health and Disease vs. Illness • Meeting Health Needs Results in Better Health • Use of Services or Process of Care Results in Better Health • Focus is on Intervention • Clinical • Community-Based • Policy HS 214, Winter 01·09·12

  9. History of Health and Quality of Life Concepts: A Paradigm Shift • Changes in survival, epidemiology • Limits of medical technology • Public health and policy: populations • social indicators of health status, QOL • Chronic disease treatment: individuals • measures of function and well-being (HRQOL) • Cost-containment and consumerism • demonstration of health care value HS 214, Winter 01·09·12

  10. WHO Definition of Health • Health is a total state of physical, mental and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease - WHO, 1949 HS 214, Winter 01·09·12

  11. How Do We Know If Care Is Effective? • Effective care maximizes probability of desired outcomes • Outcomes are markers of whether or not care is effective HS 214, Winter 01·09·12

  12. Quality of Care Model Structure Process Outcomes HealthCareOrganizationCharacteristics Clinical Status • TechnicalExcellence • Appropriate • Effective ProviderCharacteristics HRQOL CommunityCharacteristics Satisfaction • Interpersonalexcellence • Patient-centered • Responsive PopulationCharacteristics Mortality

  13. What Are Health Outcomes? • Traditional clinical endpoints • Death, disease occurrence, other adverse events • Clinical measures/biological indicators • blood pressure • blood hemoglobin level • symptoms, (e.g. fever) • Health-Related Quality of Life HS 214, Winter 01·09·12

  14. Definition of Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQOL) • Ability to engage in daily functions: • physical (e.g. self-care) • role • social • Perceived well-being versus distress • Multi-dimensional HRQOL Physical Health Mental Health HS 214, Winter 01·09·12

  15. Quality of environment Type of housing Level of income Social Support HRQOL is Not HS 214, Winter 01·09·12

  16. Quality of Life, Health Status, & Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQOL) QOL • Life Satisfaction • Happiness • Environmental • Socio-economic • Community/Family • Political Health Status • Disease • Illness, Morbidity • Comorbidity • Physiologic, Anatomic • Mortality • Survival HRQOL HS 214, Winter 01·09·12

  17. Valid Measurement of Health Is Critical • Develop/ select HRQOL measures for specific purpose • Evaluate performance of measures in target group, disease, or context • acceptability • reliability and validity HS 214, Winter 01·09·12

  18. Example of HRQOL Measure Overall, how would you rate your current health? (Circle One Number) 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Worst possible health (as bad or worse than being dead) Half-way between worst and best Best possible health HS 214, Winter 01·09·12

  19. Introduction to Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROs)

  20. Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROs) “Any report coming from patients about a health condition and its treatment” (U.S. FDA, 2006) Including • Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) • Satisfaction with treatment • Patient reports about care • Needs assessment • Adherence to treatment HS 214, Winter 01·09·12

  21. Quality of Care Model for HIV Health IT Project ENSStructure IT NetworkEnhancements: -Bi-directional lab interface. -E-prescriptions ordering and re-fill interface. - Bi-directional referral and medical record linkage with LB Health Dept. Outcomes -HRQOL (SF-12) -Reports of care (CAHPS) -ARV use/adherence -Viral load count -CD4 count -Dr/Hospital/ER visits -Access to care -Stigma -Trust -Willingness to share PHI (preferences) Process of Care -CD4 testing -Viral load testing -Obtaining lab results -E-prescribing -Pharmacy re-fills -Referrals Patient Characteristics -Age -Race/ethnicity -Gender -Risk group -Income -Education -Insurance -CD4 -AIDS DX Conceptual model adapted from Donabedian HS 214, Winter 01·09·12
