Targeted Feedback Reports to Improve Acute Coronary Syndromes (ACS) Care
NCT00952250 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
This project is designed to examine the impact of tailored feedback on site performance. The investigators' objective is to evaluate whether a 'personalized and targeted' feedback, education and performance improvement intervention has a greater impact on adherence to recommended guidelines than standard feedback. The investigators hypothesize that a site-specific report with centrally identified targets for improvement paired with target specific interventions will enable sites to quickly identify and prioritize salient problem areas, have ready access to an analysis of factors that underlie problems, and formulate an effective action plan. The investigators also hypothesize that those hospitals randomized to receive intervention will be more likely to improve their overall performance, as well as their target specific performance, during the period of observation in direct response to activated QI processes. Outcomes: The primary outcome is improvement in the overall composite of all metrics eligible for intervention regardless of their selection as targets. The secondary outcome is improvement in the composite of targeted metrics. Outcomes will be assessed in all participating sites, and in among relevant performance subgroups (low performers, academic centers, full service, and among medication versus process metrics).

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT00952250
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT00952250 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 149 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Duke University, which has 1,129 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Acute Coronary Syndromes appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which Targeted Feedback Reports is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT00952250 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include North Carolina. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
