Rheumatic Heart Disease Clinical Trial
Official title:
Design and Evaluation of a Train the Trainer Curriculum to Scale Up Automated Intelligence Supported Echocardiography for Rheumatic Heart Disease Screening in a Public Health Care System
The first primary objective of this study is to determine the diagnostic performance (sensitivity and specificity) of primary MOH nurses who have completed certification in focused echocardiography acquisition and interpretation by expert trainers to accurately identify patients who are screen positive and screen negative for rheumatic heart disease. The second primary objective is to determine the diagnostic performance (sensitivity and specificity) of secondary MOH nurses who have completed certification in focused echocardiography acquisition and interpretation by MOH nurse trainers to accurately identify patients who are screen positive and screen negative for rheumatic heart disease.
Objective 1: 4 ultrasound naïve nurses (Primary) employed at the HCIII/IVs participating in ADD-RHD Part 1 (SOMREC REF 2021-61) in Lira, will be trained and certified by experts in echocardiography for RHD on focused RHD echocardiographic screening examination and interpretation using a novel AI guided software. Focused RHD screening echocardiograms by the 4 nurses will be integrated into routine clinical practice at their assigned HCIII/IVs for 1 month. Screen positive patients will be referred to LRRH for confirmatory echocardiogram using a Standard echocardiographic machine under the National RHD registry (SOMREC REF 2014-137). All echocardiograms will be uploaded to a secure cloud-based server and over-read by a cardiologist with in one - two (1 - 2) weeks to ensure patient safety and to determine trainee performance. Diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values will be calculated. 4 MOH trainees will use pre-recorded PowerPoint presentations to conduct hands-on training for phase 2 (secondary) nurses. Objective 2: Similar to Phase 1 with just a few exceptions. 12 MOH nurses will be trained and certified by MOH nurse trainers from phase 1 to acquire and interpret RHD focused screening echocardiograms using a novel AI guided software. Screening will be integrated into routine care for 2 months and diagnostic performance assessed. ;
