About This Inflammatory Bowel Disease Study in Houston

This research study is addressing issues related to Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which is a chronic autoimmune disorder that affects over 60,000 Veterans. With close monitoring and timely treatment adjustment, the investigators can stop the natural progression of IBD, improving health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and reducing flares and hospitalizations. However, it is difficult to closely monitor Veterans with IBD between clinic visits. There is a critical need for solutions that support close between visit monitoring of Veterans with IBD. The Measurement-Based Care (MBC) for IBD study will take a systematic approach to collect, share, and act on patient reported outcome (PRO) data that can be used to achieve close monitoring. MBC supports patients' in managing their condition and boosting their confidence in their ability to handle their symptoms and disease, and also supports care teams in early recognition of health issues. The investigators will work with both Veterans and their care teams to understand and assess this program so it can be a model for future initiatives.
