Introducing an EHR-Connected Outpatient Quality Improvement Registry

American Heart Association's Outpace CVD™ Registry seeks to drive the adoption of evidence and support the creation of new insights by providing tools to identify at-risk patients and track adherence to guideline recommendations. The registry brings together automated data transfer and insights to make guideline implementation more accessible than ever.

Easy, Hands-Off Data Transfer with Built-In Security Measures

This clinical quality improvement registry automatically pulls patient-level data from your existing Electronic Health Records (EHR), with little to no manual effort. The secure connection captures only the necessary fields, and monthly encrypted transfers minimize risk while maximizing privacy safeguards.

Measure & Improve Adherence to Guideline-Directed Care

Once loaded, data is used to calculate various clinical quality measures for healthcare organizations' immediate use. Included measures have been evaluated by the American Heart Association to target conditions faced by patients with CVD and that place patients at high risk of developing CVD, as well as evidence-based provider actions to screen and treat patients.

Initial measure sets include:

  • Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic Syndrome
  • Cholesterol & ASCVD risk management
  • Heart failure
  • Hypertension
  • Diabetes management
  • Lifestyle (BMI, tobacco use)
