Abstract

Background: The objective of this study was to test a novel household‐based approach to improve late‐season influenza vaccine uptake during the 2020–2021 season, using Epic's MyChart patient portal messages and/or interactive voice response telephone calls. Methods: This study was a non‐blinded, quality improvement program using a block randomized design conducted among patients from Reliant Medical Group clinics residing in a traditional household (≥2 individuals clinically active in the Reliant system living at the same address). Households were randomized 1:1:1 into intervention arms: non‐tailored communication (messaging based on CDC's seasonal influenza vaccination campaign), tailored communication (comprehensive communication including reinforcement of the importance of influenza vaccination for high‐risk individuals), and standard‐of‐care control. Influenza vaccination during the program was captured via medical records, and the odds of vaccination among communication arms versus the control arm were assessed. A survey assessing influenza vaccination drivers was administered using MyChart. Results: Influenza vaccination increased by 3.3% during the program period, and no significant differences in vaccination were observed in intervention arms relative to the control arm. Study operationalization faced substantial challenges related to the concurrent COVID‐19 pandemic. Compared with vaccinated survey respondents, unvaccinated respondents less frequently reported receiving a recommendation for influenza vaccination from their healthcare provider (15.8% vs. 42.3%, p < 0.001) or awareness that vaccination could protect themselves and higher risk contacts (82.3% vs. 92.6%, p < 0.001). Conclusions: No significant effects of the interventions were observed. Survey results highlighted the importance of healthcare provider recommendations and the need for increased education around the benefits of vaccination. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Objective: While frequent contact with diabetes care providers may improve glycemic control among patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D), in‐person visits are labor‐intensive and costly. This study was conducted to assess the impact of an intensive remote therapy (IRT) intervention for pediatric patients with T1D. Methods: Pediatric patients with T1D were randomized to IRT or conventional care (CC) for 6 months. Both cohorts continued routine quarterly clinic visits and uploaded device data; for the IRT cohort, data were reviewed and patients were contacted if regimen adjustments were indicated. Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) change from baseline was assessed at 6 and 9 months. Diabetes‐related quality of life (QoL), healthcare services utilization, and hypoglycemic events were also tracked. Results: Among 117 enrollees (60 IRT, 57 CC), mean (SD) 6‐month %HbA1c change for IRT vs CC was −0.34 (0.85) (−3.7 mmol/mol) vs −0.05 (0.74) (−0.5 mmol/mol) overall (P = .071); −0.15 (0.67) (1.6 mmol/mol) vs −0.02 (0.66) (0.2 mmol/mol) for ages 8 to 12 (P = .541); and −0.50 (0.95) (−5.5 mmol/mol) vs −0.06 (0.80) (−0.7 mmol/mol) for ages 13 to 17 (P = .056). Diabetes‐related QoL increased by 6.5 and 1.3 points for IRT and CC, respectively (P = .062). Three months after intervention cessation, %HbA1c changed minimally among treated children aged 8 to 12 but increased by 0.22 (0.89) (2.4 mmol/mol) among those aged 13 to 17. Conclusions: IRT substantially affected diabetes metrics and improved QoL among pediatric patients with T1D. Adolescents experienced a stronger treatment effect, but had difficulty in sustaining improved control after intervention cessation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
