Abstract
The Patient Risks Outcomes and Barriers Evaluation (PROBE) system is developed using a readily available data capture platform (REDCap) and iPads. PROBE performs complete and consistent assessment of pain at every patient visit in pediatric rheumatology practices of our very large healthcare system. Using evidence based clinical guidelines, it combines the following essential elements for care: 1) screening for behavioral risks for chronic pain such as anxiety, sleep deprivation, or painful conditions affecting a caregiver living in child's home, 2) capturing disease activity related measures and enabling 3) clinical decision support. In this demonstration project we describe PROBE and evaluate it for usability in practice. Using PROBE, we observed significant differences for behavioral risk factors in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis in those who report chronic pain vs. not.
