Strategies to Improve Clinical Practice Through Guidelines: Experience from Recent Studies Michael Cabana (UCSF)Rebecca Beyth (University of Florida)Kathy Berra (Stanford University) Thomas Bailey (Washington University) Benjamin Crabtree (Robert Wood Johnson Medical School)Catarina Kiefe (University of Alabama at Birmingham) Funded by the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute
Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs) • Systematically developed statements to influence practitioner and patient decisions about appropriate health care for specific clinical circumstances. • Potential impact: • Change physician behavior to promote appropriate use of interventions • Improve the outcomes of medical care • Reduce variation in medical care • CPGs have limited effect despite efforts for several decades (e.g., JNC and ATP)
Initiative History • NHLBI released an RFA in 2001 to fund “Trials Assessing Innovative Strategies to Improve Clinical Practice through Guideline Implementation in Heart, Lung, and Blood Diseases.” • 8 projects funded in 2002 • 3 additional projects funded in 2003 • Investigators have met several times to share ideas, discuss barriers and lessons learned. • Initiative includes requirement for sharing approaches and disseminating tools and results.
