DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal describes a 5-year training program to foster an academic career in health services research. The principal investigator is a general internist and Associate Professor of Medicine at Michigan State University (MSU) who is committed to career development as an independent health services researcher. Through a combination of coursework, seminars, and independent study, enhanced research skills will be developed in three core areas: preventive cardiology, development of decision support tools, and quality/process of care improvement for both African Americans (AA) and low socio-economic status (SES) populations with coronary heart disease. Dr. Margaret Holmes-Rovner, internationally known for her work in the development and testing of decision aids, will be the mentor. Dr. Kim Eagle, a leader in quality improvement research and application of guidelines to practice, will co-mentor. The primary investigator (PI) works now and will conduct the proposed work in an area where MSU has a strong tradition: epidemiology and health services research. This environment provides the frequent interactions needed for career guidance, critique of ongoing research, and evolution of a research portfolio. The research will focus on improving secondary prevention of coronary heart disease (CHD) for both African American and low SES populations. The Specific Aims of this project are to: 1) Improve the implementation of evidence-based guidelines for secondary prevention of CHD by adapting the successful hospital Guideline Applied to Practice (GAP) to office practice (Office-GAP) using Federally Qualified Community Health Centers (FQCHCs). To accomplish this aim we will: a) Develop Office-GAP tools to embed the content of secondary prevention into the care process, b) Develop interactive educational meetings for implementing evidence- based patient-centered methods for communication and tool use. C) Develop and implement a system to link patients with existing community resources. 2) Integrate Decision Support Tools into an office-based electronic tracking and reminder system to reinforce secondary preventive goals to physicians and patients. 3) Demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of Office-GAP in FQCHC sites in Ingham County, Michigan.

描述（由申请人提供）：此提案描述了一个5年的培训计划，以培养在卫生服务研究方面的学术生涯。首席研究员是密歇根州立大学（MSU）的一名普通内科医生和医学副教授，他致力于作为一名独立的卫生服务研究员的职业发展。通过课程作业、研讨会和独立研究的结合，将在三个核心领域开发增强的研究技能：预防心脏病学、决策支持工具的开发以及改善非裔美国人（AA）和低社会经济地位（SES）冠心病人群的护理质量/过程。玛格丽特·霍姆斯-罗夫纳博士将担任导师，她因在决策辅助工具的开发和测试方面的工作而享誉国际。金·伊格尔博士是质量改进研究和指导方针应用于实践的领导者，他将担任共同导师。首席研究员（PI）现在工作，并将在密歇根州立大学具有强大传统的领域开展拟议的工作：流行病学和卫生服务研究。这种环境为职业指导、对正在进行的研究的批评和研究组合的演变提供了频繁的互动。该研究将集中于改善非裔美国人和低社会经济地位人群冠心病（CHD）的二级预防。该项目的具体目标是：1)通过使用联邦合格社区卫生中心（FQCHCs），将成功的医院指南应用于实践（GAP）应用于办公室实践（office -GAP），改善冠心病二级预防循证指南的实施。为了实现这一目标，我们将：a)开发Office-GAP工具，将二级预防的内容嵌入到护理过程中；b)开发互动式教育会议，以实施基于证据的以患者为中心的沟通和工具使用方法。C)开发和实施一个系统，将患者与现有的社区资源联系起来。2)将决策支持工具集成到基于办公室的电子跟踪和提醒系统中，以加强医生和患者的二级预防目标。3)在密歇根州英厄姆县FQCHC站点演示Office-GAP的可行性和有效性。
