Summary

The pilot study will evaluate whether electronic-Measurement Based Care (e-MBC) using the UT Southwestern MyChart personal health record is feasible, associated with patient and health care team satisfaction, and improves treatment outcomes compared to a standard treatment model. The project will be conducted in the Simmons Cancer Center Clinic at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas as a collaborative effort between the Departments of Psychiatry, Oncology, and Family and Community Medicine. The primary patient population will include adults with significant depression and/or starting an antidepressant treatment and/or experiencing a treatment change. The study will compare two groups, an e-MBC group and an office-based standard care MBC group. Study staff will explain the study to the patients, specifically explaining that study participants will receive either office-based MBC or e-MBC. Eligible participants must be willing to receive either form of treatment monitoring. Participating patients will be randomly assigned to receive either e-MBC or office-based MBC. In the e-MBC group once a month the study nurse will send a prompt from the participating patients treating physician requesting the patient to use the MyChart system to fill-out the MBC scales. Beyond these monthly assessments, patients will be encouraged to utilize the MyChart MBC assessments (e-MBC) at any time to communicate with their physician. Patients experiencing difficulties using the e-MBC system will be given additional instruction by the study nurse. Patients and physicians will be trained in the use of the eMBC system. In the office-based MBC group the study nurse will schedule monthly treatment visits and request the patient call as needed to report symptoms. The evaluation period will be 6 months.
