Abstract

Federal- and state-level governance as well as local institutional oversight are changing rapidly to address the accelerated growth in the usage of digital health technologies (DHT) -such as apps, wearables, and websites-to enable clinical and translational research. While studies have described frameworks for assessing and/or implementing individual DHTs, to our knowledge there are none describing how to implement and support multiple DHTs at an academic medical center (AMC). A multi-disciplinary team including information technology, institutional review board, legal, and privacy professionals identified 33 items to evaluate as part of onboarding studies using DHTs. In a one-year period at one AMC, we applied the novel instrument to review 98 requests for research (93) and non-research (5) use of DHTs. The 33-item instrument may be valuable to researchers and practitioners in other settings seeking to scale institutional support for DHTs.

在学术医疗中心的临床和转化研究中启用数字健康技术的方法。

联邦和州一级的管理以及地方机构的监督正在迅速改变，以应对数字医疗技术（DHT）使用的加速增长，例如应用程序、可穿戴设备和网站，以实现临床和转化研究。虽然已有研究描述了评估和/或实施单个dht的框架，但据我们所知，没有研究描述如何在学术医疗中心（AMC）实施和支持多个dht。一个由信息技术、机构审查委员会、法律和隐私专家组成的多学科团队确定了33个项目进行评估，作为使用dht进行入职研究的一部分。在一个AMC的一年时间里，我们应用新仪器审查了98个研究（93）和非研究(5)使用dht的请求。这个包含33个项目的工具对于寻求扩大对dht的机构支持的其他环境中的研究人员和从业人员可能很有价值。
