Successful Pilot in Uttar Pradesh
Elsevier has successfully piloted ClinicalPath Primary Care – a technology-based clinical decision support solution – in Uttar Pradesh under the guidance of NITI Aayog in 2020. The HAIC study conducted by Lady Hardinge Medical college, which also represents a massive collective effort of several teams who persevered through several obstacles and completed the report despite several unforeseen challenges, COVID-19 being the foremost. The technical pilot contributed to the government’s focus on improving the Indian Public Health System by empowering ASHAs and building a robust digital healthcare system in India.
ClinicalPath Primary Care solution is a web-based Clinical Decision Support (CDS) solution that provides evidence-based information on disease screening, care management, and prevention. It is intended to be used by health workers with limited clinical training, such as ASHAs. The solution assists the health worker with the assessment of diseases or conditions, supports clinicalmanagement, and facilitates follow-up for patients over longitudinal care visits in patient homes, camps, or other primary care settings. The content is based on India’s Standard Treatment Guidelines and covers the following conditions for the Phase 1 pilot: anemia, developmental delays in children, community-acquired respiratory and diarrhea infections in children, immunizations, and vaccinations, antenatal and postnatal visits, and neonatal care.The solution is accessed through a mobile device.
To ensure ASHAs will become familiar with clinical decision support solution, Elsevier will provide solution training to upskill ASHAs so they can easily login, manage patients and screen for clinical risk. The training designed by the Elsevier medical education team includes animated video content in 8 languages plus a full storybook, including exercises and discussion guidance that can be used by the training implementation partners.
The web-based Elsevier ClinicalPath Primary Care solution will be serving ASHA workers. The application contains multiple modules for User Management, Patient Management, and Patient Screening. Eight languages (English, Hindi, Gujarati, Marathi, Kannada, Telugu, Assamese, Oriya) will be supported in Phase 1. ASHAs will also be able to capture key data such as haemoglobin and blood sugar.
ClinicalPath Primary Care supports collection and exchange of health data in open standard formats. The global HL7(Health Level 7) and FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resource) standard supports interoperability. Data sharing facilitates patient health outcomes and reduces cost by using a common language of healthcare (FHIR/HL7). Only medical devices and medicines that are approved by Central Drugs and Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) will be integrated and accepted as part of DIISHA.
