About this trial
Investigators recently developed the APPROACH electronic patient reported outcome (ePROM) Survey and Clinician Report tools to collect individual results from online quality of life and health status surveys for patients with coronary heart disease, and report them back to their treating clinicians. This pilot interventional study uses a pre-post design to assess whether implementing the ePROM system into routine care is feasible and acceptable to patients and physicians, and to inform feasibility for a larger clinical trial. Specifically, the investigators aim to evaluate use of the ePROM Patient Survey and Clinician Report among eligible outpatients with known or suspected coronary artery disease and their cardiologists. Additionally, the investigators aim to determine if the use of the APPROACH ePROMs Clinician Report in routine medical encounters is acceptable (based on administrative burden, ease of use, and time required) to patients and clinicians, and supports effective communication for management of symptoms of coronary artery disease.
