APPRAISE 2.0: Live Trial of the APPRAISE Trauma Decision Support System

Recruiting now · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Wounds and Injuries

In brief

This is a pilot evaluation of the APPRAISE trauma decision-support software system ("the System"). The specific objections are as follows: 1. Evaluate the robustness of the System (i.e., whether the software performs in real-time in accordance with a priori technical specifications during real-time clinical use); 2. Evaluate whether the real-time display of the System causes distraction or confusion to clinicians treating the trauma patient such that its risks exceed its benefits; 3. Collect pilot data to allow for a statistical power analysis to design a future clinical trial evaluating efficacy.

Who can join

Age: 18 and older. Sex: any. Healthy volunteers: not accepted.

You may qualify if…

• Adult (≥18 yrs) Emergency Department (ED) patient
• Triaged to the "Acute" area of the ED. (The "Acute" area is the designated area for ED patients with potential or established critical illness. Triage to Acute is a routine ED operation that is performed based on departmental guidelines and the professional judgement of an experienced triage nurse).
• Clinical concern for acute injury (based on either an explicitly chief complaint of acute injury, or clinical team with documented concern for acute injury as a relevant part of patient presentation).

You may not qualify if…

• Prisoners
• Patients known to be pregnant, based on patient report, physical exam, or bedside ultrasound
• Patients wearing an "EFIC Opt-Out" bracelet
• Any concern about the suitability of the software system for a specific patient by any clinician involved in the patient's ED care, or by the patient themselves (or by any LAR [lawfully authorized representative] of the patient).

Where it is running

• Massachusetts General Hospital — Boston, Massachusetts, United States (enrolling)
