Evaluating the EAPOC-COPD System
Bringing Evidence to the Point-of-Care in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: The EAPOC-COPD System
Forrás: ClinicalTrials.gov · Utoljára frissítve: 2026. máj. 18.
Rövid összefoglaló (regiszter, angolul)
This study evaluates the implementation and impact of the Evidence-at-the-Point-of-Care Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (EAPOC-COPD) system, a computerized clinical decision support system designed to improve the quality of COPD care delivered in community pharmacies. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a leading cause of morbidity and healthcare utilization, and significant gaps persist in key evidence-based practices, including symptom and exacerbation risk assessment, appropriate pharmacotherapy, provision of COPD action plans, and referral for specialist care. The EAPOC-COPD system builds on a previously validated asthma platform and provides pharmacists with guideline-based decision support through a structured patient questionnaire and point-of-care recommendations, including treatment optimization and generation of personalized action plans. This study will be conducted across six community pharmacies implementing the EAPOC-COPD system as part of a quality improvement initiative. Using a quasi-experimental interrupted time series design, outcomes during a 12-month intervention period will be compared to a 12-month pre-intervention baseline period. The study will evaluate both implementation outcomes (including system uptake, usability, feasibility, and acceptability among pharmacy teams and patients) and effectiveness outcomes. Effectiveness outcomes include improvements in guideline-based COPD care processes, such as rates of symptom and exacerbation risk assessment, optimization of pharmacotherapy, provision of COPD action plans, and appropriate referral for specialist care. Results from this study will inform the scalability and broader implementation of pharmacy-based clinical decision support tools to enhance chronic disease management and support the expanding role of pharmacists in delivering evidence-based COPD care.

A regiszterben nem jelölt feltételek
- The study will involve two groups of participants: pharmacy team members and adult patients with COPD who interact with the EAPOC-COPD system during pharmacy encounters.
- Pharmacy team participants will include pharmacists, registered pharmacy technicians, pharmacy assistants, and students working at one of the six participating community pharmacies. Individuals will be eligible if they are employed at one of the participating sites, have used the EAPOC-COPD system during the study period, are able to provide informed consent, and are able to complete an electronic questionnaire in English. Individuals will be excluded if they have not used the system during the study period or decline to participate.
- Patient participants will include adults aged 18 years or older who interact with the EAPOC-COPD system during routine pharmacy care. Eligible patients will be those identified by pharmacy staff as receiving COPD-related care and who complete the EAPOC-COPD patient questionnaire during their pharmacy encounter. Patients must have also indicated willingness to be contacted regarding research participation and be able to provide informed consent. Patients who are under 18 years of age, otherwise unable to provide informed consent, or who decline participation will be excluded.
