High-quality COPD Care for People With Immune Dysfunction Through Proactive E-consults
High-quality COPD Care for People With Immune Dysfunction Through Proactive E-consults

NCT03856879

CompletedNA

Sponsor: Seattle Institute for Biomedical and Clinical Research

Conditions: COPD, HIV/AIDS

Interventions: Proactive E-consult

Countries: United States

This study examines an intervention to promote effective, evidence-based care and de-implement inappropriate therapies for COPD in HIV-infected (HIV+) patients. The intervention facilitates specialist support of primary care, which includes infectious disease (ID) physicians who serve as the primary care providers (PCP) for their HIV+ patients in the ID clinic. Rather than relying on referral-driven specialty care which may be a barrier to access, pulmonologists will proactively support ID providers to manage a population of HIV+ patients with COPD, delivering real-time evidence-based recommendations tailored to the individual HIV+ patient in the form of an E-consult.
