This $1,263,088 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Nursing Research (CFDA 93.361 Nursing Research) supports the development and evaluation of a novel mHealth intervention called "MyChildCMC" to improve outcomes for children with medical complexity (CMC). The University of Utah, in collaboration with sub-awardees IHC Health Services Inc. and Ann & Robert H Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago, will assess the efficacy and sustainability of the MyChildCMC app in a 6-month randomized controlled trial with CMC aged 1-18 years and their parents. The app aims to enable remote monitoring and early detection of acute deterioration in CMC to prevent emergency department visits and hospitalizations. The project will also evaluate the app's potential to reduce healthcare inequities experienced by racial/ethnic minority CMC populations. Findings from this 5-year research project will contribute to advancing mHealth solutions to improve outcomes for this vulnerable pediatric population.
