Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Proportion of patients who complete the mPATH-CRC program
mPATH-CRC Implementation: Proportion of all eligible patients, ages 50 - 74, who complete the mPATH-CRC program in the 6th month following the implementation date.

Secondary Outcome Measures

mPATH-CRC Reach (by socioeconomic strata)
mPATH-CRC Reach: The proportion of patients, ages 50 - 74, who are given mPATH-CRC or have risk factors identified by mPATH-CheckIn in months 1-6 by varying socioeconomic strata (Describe strata)
mPATH-CRC Adoption
The mean usage of mPATH-CRC among staff and providers over the first 6 months following implementation; usage is calculated for each staff/provider as the proportion of times mPATH-CRC is completed out of the total times mPATH-CRC should have been launched.
mPATH-CheckIn Reach
The proportion of patients aged 18 or older who complete mPATH-CheckIn in months 1-6; this outcome will be calculated overall and within socioeconomic strata
mPATH-CheckIn Adoption
The mean usage of mPATH-CheckIn among staff and providers over the first 6 months following implementation; usage is calculated for front desk staff as the proportion of times mPATH-CheckIn is completed out of the total times mPATH-CheckIn should have been handed out; usage is calculated for nurses/providers as the proportion of times mPATH-CheckIn is completed and data is transmitted to the EHR out of the total times mPATH-CheckIn should have been handed out
mPATH-CRC Implementation Fidelity
The proportion of patients who use mPATH-CRC and request a CRC screening test who have a test ordered or have the order dismissed (i.e., "self-order" feature is used as designed) in months 1-6
mPATH-CRC Maintenance
The proportion of patients aged 50-74 who are eligible for CRC screening who complete mPATH-CRC or have risk factors identified by mPATH-CheckIn in months 7-12
mPATH-CheckIn Maintenance
The proportion of patients aged 18 or older who complete mPATH-CheckIn in months 7-12
CRC screening tests ordered
The outcome is defined as the proportion of patients aged 50-74 who are eligible for CRC screening who have a CRC screening test ordered (colonoscopy, flexible sigmoidoscopy, fecal testing for blood, or fecal DNA testing) within 16 weeks of their index visit to the clinic. This outcome will also be compared between the pre- and post-implementation cohorts.
mPATH-CRC Effectiveness
The proportion of patients aged 50-74 who are eligible for CRC screening who complete CRC screening within 16 weeks of their index visit to the clinic. Effectiveness is determined by comparing the proportion who complete screening in a pre-implementation cohort (months 12 - 4 before implementation) to a post-implementation cohort (months 1 - 8 after implementation).
Facilitators and barriers to maintenance (sustained use of mPATH-CRC over time)
These will be identified through semi-structured interviews. Interviews will explore how mPATH-CRC was incorporated in the clinic's work flow and factors that affected maintenance such as intervention adaptations, organizational characteristics, and the champion's role. Interviews will be conducted with four members of each selected clinic: the clinic champion, one clinician, one front desk team member, and one medical assistant/nursing team member.
mPATH-CRC Reach (by month)
The proportion of patients aged 50-74 who are eligible for CRC screening who complete mPATH-CRC or have risk factors identified by mPATH-CheckIn in months 1-5 following implementation

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Study Investigators are conducting this study to learn how to best implement a new iPad program in clinical practice.
Detailed Description
The study team has developed mPATH-CRC (mobile PAtient Technology for Health-Colorectal Cancer), a patient-friendly iPad program used by individuals immediately before a routine primary care visit. To fully realize mPATH-CRC's potential to decrease CRC mortality, the program now must be implemented in primary care practices in a way that encourages routine and sustained use. However, while hundreds of mobile health (mHealth) tools have been developed in recent years, the optimal strategies for implementing and maintaining mHealth interventions in clinical practice are unknown. This study will compare the results of a "high touch" strategy to a "low touch" strategy using a Type III hybrid design and incorporating mixed methods to evaluate implementation, maintenance, and effectiveness of mPATH-CRC in a diverse sample of community-based practices. The study will be conducted in three phases: 1) in a cluster-randomized controlled trial of 22 primary care clinics, the study team will compare the implementation outcomes of a "high touch" evidence-based mHealth implementation strategy with a "low touch" implementation strategy; 2) in a nested pragmatic study, the study team will estimate the effect of mPATH-CRC on completion of CRC screening within 16 weeks of a clinic visit; and 3) by surveying and interviewing clinic staff and providers after implementation is complete, the study team will determine the factors that facilitate or impede the maintenance of mHealth interventions. This record refers to the cluster-randomized controlled trial of 22 primary care clinics.
