Awareness and use of the sickle cell disease toolbox by primary care providers in North Carolina.
The authors developed a decision support tool for sickle cell disease (SCD) for SCD management (SCD Toolbox) based on the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute's SCD guidelines. Using data from primary care providers (PCPs) in North Carolina, they found that PCPs rarely co-managed with a specialist, had low awareness and use of the SCD Toolbox, and requested multiple formats for the toolbox.

Health information technology to improve care for people with multiple chronic conditions.
The objective of this study was to review evidence regarding the use of Health Information Technology (health IT) interventions aimed at improving care for people living with multiple chronic conditions (PLWMCC) in order to identify critical knowledge gaps. The investigators concluded that the body of literature included in this review provides critical information on the state of the science as well as the many gaps that need to be filled for digital health to fulfill its promise in supporting care delivery that meets the needs of PLWMCC.
