Supporting Use of AC Through Provider Profiling of Oral AC Therapy for AF IV
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 30 Mar 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Six million Americans live with atrial fibrillation (AF), a heart rhythm abnormality that is a major risk factor for stroke and only half of those AF patients receive oral anticoagulation (AC). Within the context of an ongoing collaboration between two large learning health systems, the investigators propose to study the impact of a shared clinical decision support tool embedded within the electronic health record designed to enhance guideline-based AC prescription. The hypothesis the investigators are testing is that the number of AC starts in patients seen by intervention providers will be higher than in patients seen by control providers. Additionally, the investigators are testing the hypothesis that the risk of not persisting on AC will be higher in the patients of control providers compared with patients of intervention providers.

Who cannot take part
Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.
Prior treatment
- Providers who do not care for patients aged 18 years and older with ICD-10 diagnostic code consistent with AF or atrial flutter who had a visit with a primary care provider or cardiovascular medicine specialist in the previous one year with the diagnosis of AF present as an active diagnosis in the EHR.
- Patients under the age of 18; patients without a ICD-10 diagnostic code consistent with AF or atrial flutter who had a visit with a primary care provider or cardiovascular medicine specialist in the previous one year with the diagnosis of AF present as an active diagnosis in the EHR. Patients will also be excluded from this study if they are known to be pregnant or a prisoner.

- Left atrial appendage closure
- Hospice status
Who the study is looking for
- Providers caring for patients aged 18 years and older with international classification of disease 10th revision (ICD-10) diagnostic code consistent with atrial fibrillation (AF) or atrial flutter who had a visit with a primary care provider or cardiovascular medicine specialist in the previous one year with the diagnosis of AF present as an active diagnosis in the electronic health record (EHR).
- Patients aged 18 years and older with ICD-10 diagnostic code consistent with AF or atrial flutter who had a visit with a primary care provider or cardiovascular medicine specialist in the previous one year with the diagnosis of AF present as an active diagnosis in the EHR.
