[Agency] AHRQ [Project Title] Comparative Outcomes Management with Electronic Data Technology (COMET) Study [Institution] STANFORD UNIVERSITY [Amount] $0 [Summary] We plan to develop an electronic network that will enable the transfer of information from various hospitals and medical centers, patients and research subjects, different types and severity of medical problems, various equipment and test types, and across several patient visits. This network will allow physicians and scientists to access comprehensive information about their patients and research subjects, and the sharing of this information across several academic institutions may ultimately lead to improvement in medical outcomes. We also plan to conduct a study evaluating two common treatments for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a highly prevalent sleep-related breathing disorder, and we anticipate that this study will provide comparative data for determining the effectiveness of these treatments in reducing cardiovascular risk in a population at high risk for cardiovascular disease, and will enhance clinical decision making in determining the optimal treatment strategies for patients with OSA.
