Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The goal of this study is to refine and test a technology-enabled patient support system (PSS) as a tool for self-management of pediatric CF. The PSS includes two components: 1) patient-facing: an app with customizable dashboards for tracking patient-generated outcome measures and providing personally relevant decision-making support; and 2) clinic-based: clinical patient management and technical support. Using a one-group pretest-posttest design, we will evaluate the effect of the adapted technology-assisted PSS on patient-reported outcomes (PROs). Study hypothesis: Among pediatric CF patients treated at the UAB CF Center, the use of technology-aided PSS over 6 months will improve health-related quality of life (primary outcome) as well as patient satisfaction, patient activation, and shared decision-making (secondary outcomes).

Open-platform patient support system (PSS) app

Intervention Type OTHER

The PSS app enables tracking and visualization of patient-selected health outcomes and sharing of select outcomes with family and providers. The CF clinical team and the family jointly decide which aspects of daily life to track, how often, and the content and frequency of patient-generated reports. Examples of daily care that can be tracked include symptoms (respiratory, gastrointestinal, pain), energy level, appetite, sleep, exercise, mood, medications, therapies, school/work attendance. Prior to a clinic visit, the patient/family generates a report of the outcomes they have been tracking, to help prepare for the visit and identify successes and areas of struggle. This information facilitates meaningful conversations during the visit and promotes shared decision-making. Patients/families can view their progress at any time and share selected outcomes with family and friends as often as desired.
