Tools for helping cardiovascular risk among adults with serious mental illness - Video
|
Overview
Clinical decision support (CDS) tools are typically technology-based interventions that provide patient-specific information, often at the point of care, to improve health and health care. Study in JAMA Network Open reported that Clinical decision support intervention resulted in a rate of change in total modifiable cardiovascular risk that was 4% lower among intervention patients compared with control patients. Results were driven by the cumulative effects of incremental and mostly non significant changes in individual modifiable risk factors. These findings emphasize the value of using Clinical decision support to prompt early primary care intervention for adults with serious mental illness.
