Clinic Staff as a Unique Stakeholder Group in Patient-Centered Outcomes Research
Research Action for Health Network (REACHnet) and LPHI discuss the role of clinic staff in patient-centered outcomes research. Through a project funded by the PCORI Eugene Washington Engagement Award, LPHI implemented pragmatic research studies that resulted in a training workbook to help clinic staff better understand the research process.

Pilot Linkage Project Process and Results
PCORnet CMS Linkage Pilot Team has released a white paper to help others learn more about how to use Medicare claims data to support studies. The pilot team developed a process for using Medicare claims data to supplement PCORnet data in pragmatic clinical trials such as the ADAPTABLE study, which compares the effectiveness of different daily aspirin dosing for heart attack and stroke prevention. The project team describes the processes and data flows used successfully in the pilot, as well as lessons learned and recommendations.
Survey to Assess Engagement
The PaTH Clinical Research Network (CRN) distributed this engagement survey among their clinicians, patient partner, and staff to assess when and how each individual was engaged in PaTH research. This survey can be used by others as a model for conducting an engagement assessment survey tool.
Principles of Partnership Self Assessment Tool
This tool developed by the Greater Plains Collaborative (GPC) Clinical Research network (CRN) is used to assess and determine the extent to which their network’s research has abided by the Community-Campus Partnership for Health guiding principles of engagement. Use this assessment tool to help you identify the extent to which your research has incorporated engagement principles.
GPC Engagement Meeting Norms
The Greater Plains Collaborative (GPC) Clinical Research Network (CRN) developed and used these engagement meeting norms as a way to orient and continually guide stakeholder interactions in their community. Use this document to guide the development of meeting norms for your own community.
How can you contribute to scientific manuscripts?
At the request of our patient partners, the PaTH Clinical Research Network (CRN)/PCORnet Bariatric Study teams developed this FAQ resource to help partnering stakeholders understand how they can contribute to scientific manuscripts. It can be adapted for other studies.
Measuring an Epidemic
Speakers John Muench, MD, MPH and Thuy Le, MPH, both of OCHIN discuss the liberalizing of chronic opioid prescribing in the 90s was soon followed by unforeseen harm to individuals and communities.
Muench and Le review the history of the rise in opioid addiction and overdose deaths, prior efforts to track pain medication prescriptions, and current efforts to organize the ADVANCE Clinical Research Network electronic health record data to more easily describe prescribing pattern changes that follow interventions at national, state, and clinic levels.
