The providers and staff at Fulton Family Health Associates believe that only through continued research will we see improvements in the health of our patients and our communities. We feel that this research agenda should not only take place on the basic science level, but at the level of the primary care practice as well. FFHA has participated in the following research studies.
Better Self-Management of Diabetes Project (BSMOD)
This project, under the direction of the Department of Family Medicine and the University of Missouri, Columbia, was designed to help determine the strategies rural communities and primary care practices can use to help patients with diabetes control their disease. Funded by the Missouri Foundation for Health, this 3 year project ran from 2007-2010.
Standing Orders - Translating Research into Practice Study (SO-TRIP)
FFHA is one of 9 practices nationwide to participate in the SO-TRIP study, conducted by the Practice Partner Research Network, and directed by facultry at the Medical University of South Carolina. This study, funded by the Agency for Healthcare Quality and Research, was designed to look for improvements in care with the use of electronic standing orders in an electronic medical record (EMR). This study was completed in June of 2010.
Reducing Inappropriate Prescribing of Antibiotics by Primary Care Clinicians (ABX-TRIP)
FFHA serves as a consultant to the 9 practices in the ABX-TRIP study. This study, also conducted by the Practice Partner Research Network, assesses the impact of a decision support tool in the diagnosis and management of upper respiratory infections. The study runs from August of 2009 until July of 2011.
