SUMMARY:AcademyHealth 2022 Annual Research Meeting Pre-Conference Workshop: "Essentials of Embedded Pragamatic Clinical Trials"
DESCRIPTION:Vince Mor\, PhD\, IMPACT Multiple Principal Investigator\, will participate as a panelist discussing challenges\, solutions and lessons learned. \nEssentials of Embedded Pragmatic Clinical Trials\n\nDate/Time: Friday\, June 3\, 2022 | 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.\nLocation: TBD\nRegistration: $300\nRegister Here » \nThis workshop introduces concepts in the design\, conduct\, and implementation of embedded pragmatic clinical trials (ePCTs)\, with a particular focus on methods relevant to health services researchers. The workshop will provide an introduction to the investigative opportunities for embedded health systems research\, along with strategies for conducting clinical trials that provide real-world evidence necessary to inform both practice and policy. Firsthand ePCT experiences and case studies from the NIH Health Care Systems Research Collaboratory Demonstration Projects will support and illustrate the topics presented. Vince Mor\, PhD\, will be one of 4 principle investigators of ePCTs participating in an afternoon panel discussion moderated by Kevin Weinfurt\, PhD.  The panel will reflect on the morning topics and discuss challenges\, solutions\, and lessons learned. \nObjectives:  \n\nTo clarify the definition of ePCTs and explain their utility;\nTo introduce attendees to the unique characteristics and challenges of designing\, conducting\, and implementing ePCTs within diverse health care systems;\nAnd\, to increase the capacity of health services researchers to address important clinical questions with ePCTs.\n\nLearn more:\nhttps://academyhealth.org/arm/pre-conference

SUMMARY:Focus on Aging: Federal Partners’ Webinar Series - Mitchell presenting "Evidence- and Goal-Based Decision-Making in Dementia at the End of Life"
DESCRIPTION:IMPACT principal investigator\, Susan Mitchell\, MD\, MPH\, presenting on “Evidence- and Goal-Based Decision-Making in Dementia at the End of Life” at the National Institute on Aging’s Focus on Aging: Federal Partners’ Webinar Series. \nThis webinar series will address important topics for public health and health care professionals\, aging services organizations\, the research community\, and other stakeholders in aging. The series is a joint project of four of the federal agencies that support the health and wellness of older adults in the U.S.: the Administration for Community Living\, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention\, the Health Resources and Services Administration\, and the National Institute on Aging. In addition to general topics of interest for older adults and those who work with them\, each webinar will include information specific to individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease and other types of dementia\, as well as their caregivers. \nThursday\, September 30th\, 2021\, 2:30 – 4:00 p.m. ET \nPlease click here to register for the webinar. \nEnd-of-life care is a term used to describe support and medical care given during the time of life preceding death. Care at the end of life can include support for physical\, emotional\, spiritual\, and practical needs. For those living with dementia\, end-of-life care entails unique considerations in these domains\, which are critical to maximizing quality of life. The September 2021 Focus on Aging: Federal Partners’ Webinar will delve deeply into the topic of end-of-life care for those living with dementia\, with presentations from national experts on the following: \n\n\n\nEvidence- and Goal-Based Decision-Making in Dementia at the End of Life\nSusan Mitchell\, MD\, MPH\, Harvard Medical School\, Hebrew SeniorLife\, Marcus Institute for Aging Research\nMaximizing Quality of Life in Dementia: A Palliative Approach\nMaisha T.

SUMMARY:ISCB 2021 (Registration Closed): 42ND ANNUAL CONFERENCE OF THE INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY FOR CLINICAL BIOSTATISTICS - "Sample size calculation for stepped wedge cluster randomized trials with multiple levels of clustering"
DESCRIPTION:15:15-16:45 (9:15 am ET) Session OC4B: Cluster randomized trials\n\nCHAIR: Andrew Copas\n\n\n\n\n9:15 ET\nKendra Davis-Plourde\, Monica Taljaard and Fan Li \nSample size calculation for stepped wedge cluster randomized trials with multiple levels of clustering\n\nABSTRACT. The stepped wedge cluster randomized trial is an attractive design for evaluating health services delivery or policy interventions. In this design\, clusters start in the control condition and gradually cross over to the treatment based on a schedule dictated by random assignment. Outcomes may be assessed on the same individuals over time (i.e.\, a cohort design) or different individuals (i.e.\, a cross-sectional design). A key consideration in this design is that sample size calculation and analysis must account for within-period as well as between-period intracluster correlations; cohort designs have additional correlations due to repeated measures on the same individuals. While numerous methods have been developed to account for within- and between-period intracluster correlations with a single level of clustering during each time period\, few methods are available to accommodate multiple levels of clustering. Our objectives were to develop computationally-efficient sample size procedures that recognize within-period and between-period intracluster correlations in stepped wedge trials with more than two levels of clustering. Focusing on three levels of clustering and assuming equal cluster-period sizes\, we consider three variants\, depending on whether each level is treated as a cross-sectional or closed-cohort design. We introduce an extended block exchangeable matrix to characterize the correlation structures both within- and between-clusters in each cluster-period and develop convenient sample size expressions that depend on this correlation structure. With a continuous outcome\, we show the sample size expression depends on the correlation structure only through two eigenvalues of the extended block exchangeable matrix. For binary outcomes under a mixed effects framework\, we develop a sample size expression based on a first-order Taylor approximation. We conduct simulation studies to examine the finite-sample properties of the proposed sample size algorithms and demonstrate the application of the proposed methods using the Washington State Expedited Partner Therapy trial: a multilevel stepped wedge trial that randomized local health jurisdictions (level 4) consisting of clinics (level 3) and observed patients (level 2) with respect to their Chlamydia infection status (level 1). \n\nMore event details: http://www.iscb2021.info/en/pages/iscb-2021-home

SUMMARY:Virtual Forum: Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML) Consortium to Advance Health Equity and Researcher Diversity (AIM-AHEAD)
DESCRIPTION:The Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML) Consortium to Advance Health Equity and Researcher Diversity (AIM-AHEAD) virtual forum will occur on Friday\, June 25th (1:00-4:00 PM EDT). This virtual forum aims to bring together stakeholders across academia\, federal agencies\, the data science/tech industry\, and health care systems and centers who are interested in leveraging artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) for research\, with a primary focus on mitigating health disparities.  The purpose of this meeting will be to provide an overview of the initiative approved for funding by NIH and then engage attendees in listening sessions via breakout groups which will focused on three main topics: research interests\, computing infrastructure and resources\, and training needs. The meeting will conclude with a report back from these smaller breakout discussions and a final summary of the forum discussion and anticipated next steps.  The feedback from this event will inform the establishment of mutually beneficial and  coordinated partnerships to increase the participation and representation of researchers and communities currently underrepresented in the development of AI/ML models and enhance the capabilities of this emerging technology\, beginning with EHR data.  \n  \nRegistration Closed: Due to the enthusiastic response\, the AIM-AHEAD Team have reached the participation limit to ensure meaningful conversation\, so they have closed registration.  Over the next several weeks\, they will have additional opportunities for people to provide feedback and ask questions\, including a formal Request for Information (RFI) to gather written comments.  They will also post a meeting summary of this stakeholder forum. If you have any questions about this event\, please contact AIM-AHEAD@od.nih.gov.
