Abstract
This pilot study will examine whether an implementation strategy will improve delivery of evidence-based care for cardiovascular risk factors for people with serious mental illness.
Conditions: Diabetes Mellitus, Hypertension, Dyslipidemias.
Primary outcome: Quality Improvement Culture as Assessed by the Modified Version of the Validated Survey on Patient Safety; Self-efficacy as Assessed by an Adapted Version of Compeau & Higgins' Task-focused Self-efficacy Scale.
Enrollment: 85 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 85 participants or records.
