| Abstract | Background Clinical management of patients with chronic cardiometabolic disease is complicated by polypharmacy. Consequently, when patients clinically deteriorate, physicians are challenged to distinguish both medication nonadherence and drug-drug interactions (DDI) from chronic disease progression. Methods In this randomized controlled trial, we enrolled U.S. board-certified Primary Care Physicians (PCPs) serving patients with cardiometabolic disease. PCPs were randomized and managed their patients with (intervention), or without (control), a novel chronic disease management test (CDMT) that can detect medication nonadherence and DDIs. Patients’ medical records were abstracted at baseline and 3-month follow-up. Primary outcomes were the CDMT’s impact on both the PCPs’ detection of medication nonadherence and DDI, and the frequency of performing medication nonadherence- and DDI-related clinical actions. Secondary outcomes examined the types of clinical actions performed. Primary and secondary outcomes were analyzed by logistic regression using single variable and clustered multivariable modeling to adjust for similarities in patient characteristics, by PCP practice. Results Sixteen intervention and 20 control PCPs shared de-identified records for 126 and 207 patients, respectively. There were no significant demographic differences between the two study arms, among PCPs or patients. At baseline, there was no significant difference between the intervention and control PCPs in the percentage of clinical actions performed for medication nonadherence (P = 0.98) and DDI (P = 0.41). At 3-month follow-up (after CDMT), 69.1% of intervention compared to 20.3% of control patients with medication nonadherence had a related clinical action performed (P < 0.001). Regarding DDI, 37.3% of intervention compared to 0.5% of control patients had a relevant clinical action performed in follow-up (P < 0.001). Across the range of medication nonadherence- and DDI-related actions, the intervention compared to the control PCPs were more likely to adjust the medication regimen (24.1% vs. 9.5%) and document medication nonadherence in the patient chart (31.0% vs. 14.3%) at follow-up (P = 0.04). Conclusions Although intervention and control PCPs similarly detected and acted upon medication nonadherence and DDI at baseline, intervention PCPs’ detection increased significantly after using the CDMT. Also, the clinical actions performed with CDMT support were more clinically rigorous. These outcomes support the clinical utility of CDMT in the management of symptomatic patients with cardiometabolic disease and polypharmacy.

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
