This study uses a newly published, evidence-based conceptual model to study the determinants
of implementation success, implementation outcomes, and health care outcomes resulting from
implementing an asthma portal, MyAsthma, in the national, Agency for Health Care Research
and Quality(AHRQ)-funded, Center for Pediatric Practice Research and Learning. Technically,
the portal will be implemented with 2 innovative approaches that facilitate rapid cycle
evaluation in multiple Electronic Health Records (EHRs). Although many patient portals are
simple vehicles for transferring information about upcoming appointments, test results or
laboratory findings, the asthma portal in this project extends this basic functionality to
provide asthma education, collect patient-reported outcomes, evaluate medication use and
side effects, and track parents' preferences and goals. Because asthma is an AHRQ priority
condition which addresses three AHRQ priority criteria (children, low income, and special
health care needs), our study will use this population to focus on stage 3 Meaningful Use
(MU3) objectives. It is the hope that by conducting this study, translational knowledge will
be gained to make recommendations for practice implementation and actionable policy
statements.
