Clinical Trial Summary

Unplanned readmissions after hospitalization for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) are among the leading causes of preventable morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. Digital health interventions (DHI) could be an effective tool in promoting self-management, adherence to guideline directed therapy, and cardiovascular risk reduction. A DHI developed at Johns Hopkins-the Corrie Health Digital Platform-includes the first cardiology Apple CareKit smartphone application, paired with an Apple Watch and iHealth Bluetooth-enabled blood pressure monitor. Corrie targets: (1) self-management of cardiac medications, (2) self-tracking of vital signs, (3) education about cardiovascular disease through articles and animated videos, and (4) care coordination that includes cardiac rehabilitation and outpatient follow-up appointments. In this prospective study, STEMI or type 1 NSTEMI patients are being enrolled to use the Corrie Health Digital Platform beginning early during participants' hospital stay. Enrollment sites include Johns Hopkins Hospital, Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center, Massachusetts General Hospital, and Reading Hospital. The primary objective is to compare time to first readmission within 30 days post-discharge among patients with the Corrie Health Digital Platform to patients in the historical standard of care comparison group.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Number of Participants Readmitted Within 30-days Post Hospital Discharge Number of participants readmitted within 30-days post hospital discharge in the Corrie Digital Health Group as compared to the Historical Standard of Care Comparison group, collected from hospital administrative databases. 30-days post hospital discharge
Secondary Cost-effectiveness as Assessed by a Markov Model of Cost-effectiveness We estimated typical costs associated with readmissions or death of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients discharged with standard practices using 2014 US hospital costs from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). The hospital cost (in US dollars) for unplanned 30-day readmission is presented for the Corrie Digital Health Platform Group and the Historical Comparison Group. The reported number is the estimated cost per readmission per participant since the exact cost of the readmission for each patient who was readmitted within 30-days wasn't available. No measure of central tendency is available. 30 days post hospital discharge
Secondary In-hospital Care Satisfaction as Assessed by a Subset of the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems Survey (9 Items) Among participants in the Corrie Digital Health group, a nine-item five-point Likert scale for assessing in-hospital care satisfaction 3 days post-discharge is used with scoring from 1 "strongly disagree" to 5 "strongly agree", with higher scores meaning participants were more satisfied with the care received. A total score of these nine items is calculated with possible total scores ranging from 9 to 45. 3 days post hospital discharge
Secondary In-hospital Care Satisfaction as Assessed by a Subset of the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems Survey (Summary Score) Among participants in the Corrie Digital Health group, a nine-item five-point Likert scale for assessing in-hospital care satisfaction 3 days post-discharge is used with scoring from 1 "strongly disagree" to 5 "strongly agree", with higher scores meaning participants were more satisfied with the care received. A total score of these nine items is calculated with possible total scores ranging from 9 to 45. 3 days post hospital discharge
Secondary In-hospital Care Satisfaction as Assessed by a Subset of the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems Survey (1 Dichotomous Item) Among participants in the Corrie Digital Health group, one additional item, not on the five-point Likert scale, for assessing in-hospital care satisfaction 3 days post-discharge asked if they received information in writing about what symptoms or health problems to look out for after leaving the hospital (Yes/No). 3 days post hospital discharge
Secondary In-hospital Care Satisfaction as Assessed by a Subset of the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems Survey (1 Continuous Item) Among participants in the Corrie Digital Health group, one additional item, not on the five-point Likert scale, for assessing in-hospital care satisfaction 3 days post-discharge asked them to provide an overall hospital rating on a 1-10 sliding scale with a higher score indicating a higher overall hospital rating. 3 days post hospital discharge
Secondary Perceived Usability of Corrie as Assessed by the Systems Usability Scale Among participants in the Corrie Digital Health group, a 10-item five-point Likert scale for assessing systems usability of Corrie both 3 and 30 days post-discharge is used with scoring from 0 to 4 and higher scores meaning patients perceive the system as having global usability. The total score reference range is from 0 to 100, where lower scores indicate lower perceived application usability. 3 and 30 days post hospital discharge
Secondary Perceived Corrie App Satisfaction as Assessed by a Study Team Developed Scale Among participants in the Corrie Digital Health group, a five-item five-point Likert scale for assessing participant satisfaction with Corrie as a tool to improve acute myocardial infarction recovery 3 and 30 days post-discharge is used with scoring from 1 to 5 and higher scores meaning more satisfaction with Corrie. Total possible scores ranging from 5 to 25, where higher scores indicate greater Corrie app satisfaction. 3 and 30 days post hospital discharge
Secondary User Engagement With Corrie App as Assessed by the User Engagement Scale Among participants in the Corrie Digital Health group, a 29-item five-point Likert scale for assessing the subjective experience of user engagement with Corrie 30 days post discharge is used with scoring ranging from 1 to 5 and higher scores reflecting higher perceived user engagement. The total subjective user engagement score was calculated by diving the sum of all items by 29, resulting in a range of potential total scores from 1 to 5. 30 days post hospital discharge
Secondary User Engagement With Corrie Health App as Assessed by the Total Number of Interactions Per Participant in the Smartphone App, Collected Via Corrie Health Platform User Analytics The total number of app interactions is a behavioral manifestation of user engagement and is monitored through app usage data. The total number of app interactions consisted of: number of BP, heart rate,weight, mood, and step count recordings; number of medications tracked; and number of educational articles and videos viewed over the study period. Throughout the study period for app usage up to 30 days post-discharge from the hospital
Secondary User Engagement With Corrie Health App as Assessed by the Overall Amount of Time Spent Using the App, Collected Via Corrie Health Platform App User Analytics The overall amount of time (days) spent using the app is a behavioral manifestation of user engagement and is monitored through app usage data and collected via Corrie Health Platform app user analytics. Throughout the study period for app usage up to 30 days post-discharge from the hospital
Secondary Patient Activation as Assessed by the Patient Activation Measure Among participants in the Corrie Digital Health group, the 10-item five-point Likert scale for assessing patient activation 3 and 30 days post-discharge is used with scoring ranging from 1 to 5 and higher scores indicating the patient possesses the necessary knowledge, skills, and confidence needed for self-care. The total score reference range is from 0 to 100, where lower scores indicate lower patient activation. 3 and 30 days post hospital discharge
Secondary Cardiac Medication Adherence as Assessed by the Adherence to Refills and Medications Scale Subscale Among participants in the Corrie Digital Health group, the eight-item four-point Likert scale for assessing cardiac medication adherence 30 days post-discharge is used with scoring ranging from 1 to 4 and lower scores indicating better adherence. Total possible scores could range from 8 to 32 with lower scores indicating better adherence. The total cardiac medication adherence score was dichotomized into completely cardiac medication adherent and near completely cardiac medication adherent, based on the median score. 30 days post hospital discharge
Secondary Cardiac Medication Adherence as Assessed by Smartphone App Usage Data Cardiac medication adherence (beta-blockers, anti-platelets, statins) is measured from the smartphone app usage data as the percentage of cardiac medications marked as "taken". Throughout the study period for app usage up to 30 days post-discharge from the hospital
Secondary Medication Adherence as Assessed by Smartwatch App Usage Data Medication adherence is measured from the smartwatch app usage data as percent of pills marked as taken. Throughout the study period for app usage up to 30 days post-discharge from the hospital
Secondary Number of Participants Who Had Emergency Department Visits Within 30-days Post Hospital Discharge Number of participants who had Emergency department visits (at Johns Hopkins Hospital and Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center) within 30-days post hospital discharge, that did not result in readmission, in the Corrie Digital Health Group as compared to the Historical Standard of Care Comparison group, collected from hospital administrative databases. 30 days post hospital discharge
