Study Summary
Engaging patients and families to take an active role in their healthcare leads to improved outcomes. Providing physicians and families with near real-time data on outcomes in children with similar medical conditions can allow families to form realistic expectations and take an active role in their child's health. It also provides physicians with near real-time feedback on patient-reported outcome measures to guide both conversations and recommendations for therapy at the point-of-care. A rapid learning healthcare system (RLHS) is a system that merges clinical research and clinical care. It is designed to collect data during routine patient care and then utilize the data to rapidly generate evidence to improve patient care, provide information to patients and families, and track quality measures. The investigators created a RLHS that integrates pre-specified data elements and validated surveys within the clinical workflow in order to operationalize automated research data collection and integrate predictive analytics into the electronic health record (EHR). Patients, caregivers, and physicians can access data in order to make informed, shared decisions about care and align expectations about outcomes.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT03131180
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT03131180 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 133 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Katherine Deans, which has 1 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 Colorectal Disorders appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Rapid Learning Healthcare System 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: NCT03131180 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Ohio. 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.
