DXS is pleased to announce that our ExpertCare medicines optimisation tool has been awarded an Invention for Innovation (i4i) FAST (Funding At the Speed of Translation) grant from the National Institute for Health and Care Research.
The project study will encompass the review of four hundred and eighty diagnosed hypertensive patients across several participating GP practices to answer the core question of ‘Does the use of ExpertCare in hypertension medication reviews lead to an increase in the proportion of hypertensive patients whose medication treatment is compliant with NICE guidelines?’.
The project research plan and outcomes are intended to verify the impact ExpertCare achieved at the DXS pilot sites in 2021 and 2022 and could prove pivotal in advancing the management of hypertensive patients.
Commenced on the 1st of May, the project is on target for completion by the 31st of August 2023. We are collaborating with the Eastern Academic Health Science Network who will validate the trial data and publish the results.
