Electronic patient reported outcomes (ePROs) are self-report measures assessing how patients feel and function. UNC Health Care is implementing ePROs in outpatient clinics. This is a prospective observational study of an existing health system ePRO initiative. The purpose of this study is to build an evidence base to understand implementation processes for an ePRO symptom screening model in real-world clinics to better support clinics and underserved patient groups.

This is a study being conducted at many sites across the US to evaluate patients who are older than 50 years old, who have sudden bleeding in the brain (intracerebral hemorrhage) while taking a statin medication. It is unclear if continuing to take a statin medication after this type of injury can increase the risk of another hemorrhage, stroke or cardiac event. This study will assign patients to 1 of 2 groups. One group will continue the statin medication they were taking previously. The other group will discontinue the statin medication. Both groups will be followed for 2 years to see if they have any additional medical events.

Our UNC-CH School of Social Work (SSW) team is collaborating with the North Carolina Department of Public Safety (NCDPS) to develop human trafficking identification and response protocols for North Carolina correctional settings. To inform the development of such protocols, we are conducting an environmental scan to determine how correctional settings (prisons and jails) across the United States are currently identifying and responding to victims of human trafficking.

The Relational Leadership at Carolina is an implementation and dissemination project. This project will: 1) refine and stabilize the Relational Leadership Institute (RLI) course for health professionals for the purpose of broad dissemination and implementation; 2) provide groundwork to support the catalyzing forces of Relational Leadership and build community through multiple approaches; and 3) establish a pathway and structured support for individuals to contribute to the program at all levels.

Our project aims to document how COVID-19 is changing schools and families, and to trace the ways these changes are shaping educational inequality. In collaboration with North Carolina's Guilford County Schools, we are surveying school leaders, teachers, and parents and guardians about the academic, material, and socio-emotional resources that school communities are collectively employing in response to the pandemic. Our analyses will document school school/family collaboration during the COVID-19 crisis; investigate racial and socioeconomic inequalities in access to school services and supports; and evaluate the consequences of school supports and school/family collaboration for learning loses during the pandemic-induced interruption in regular schooling. Ultimately, we hope this project will shed light on strategies that can mitigate the pandemic's potentially disastrous consequences for educational inequality.

The virus that causes COVID-19 disease infects many people, but only some get sick. We want to understand how COVID affects the immune system and what makes severe COVID infections different from other diseases that cause hospitalization and breathing problems. We collect samples of blood, sputum, urine, and stool from patients in the hospital to learn how COVID affects cells and molecules of the immune system.

This study seeks to form a better understanding of factors that affect researchers' decisions regarding whether and how to measure and report fidelity of implementation strategies. Findings may provide insight into the significant decline in implementation strategy fidelity measurement/reporting quality over time and elucidate ways to improve fidelity measurement of implementation strategies going forward.

We are interested in understanding current use of and attitudes towards measurement-base care among behavioral health providers.

This is a non-interventional, observational study to collect data on survival, quality of life, and other follow-up information on patients who receive GammaTile therapy.
