Successful implementation of stroke risk screening for sickle cell anemia in the DISPLACE study: results of a cluster randomized trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Stroke risk screening using transcranial Doppler (TCD) is a critical evidence-based tool for children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) that has been poorly implemented in the United States. The Dissemination and Implementation of Stroke Prevention Looking at the Care Environment (DISPLACE) study was designed to improve rates of stroke risk screening for SCA using interventions informed by an extensive multi-level barriers and facilitators assessment. This report describes the final outcomes of a large, randomized implementation trial comparing two intervention arms: 1) an application designed to track TCD implementation, ProviderMinder™, versus 2) ProviderMinder™ plus a single coordinator intervention.
