Study: NCT04539457

Intervention type: BEHAVIORAL
Group type: ACTIVE_COMPARATOR
Intervention: Desktop helper
Description: The 'Desktop Helper (version 10)' is a user-friendly information sheet developed by the IPCRG. This 'Desktop Helper (version 10)' has been developed in co-operation with several clinicians and experts in the field of COPD. These practical guidance and support are a tool for clinicians working in primary care. The 'Desktop Helper (version 10)' contains specific advice to prevent clashes. The specific advice of the 'Desktop Helper (version 10)' will be elaborated in decision trees. These will be integrated and implemented into the MedicomSmart system by Stichting Healthbase. Subsequently, these decision trees will provide GPs to conduct case-finding of COPD patients with 'medication-comorbidity clashes'. These are based on the 'Desktop Helper (version 10)' . Case finding will be done by the GP or the practice nurse (POH).

Intervention: E-learning
Description: The e-learning module will be explanatory to the 'Desktop Helper (version 10)' how to perform the case-finding and in what way the case-finding can be beneficial to the patients with COPD and their (co)morbidities. This e-learning module will include several example cases and how to deal with the case-finding and the next steps in the process to reduce the (co)morbidity clashes with the medications of COPD. Together with the decision trees as inferred from the 'Desktop Helper (version 10)', the e-learning module is aimed at inducing a behavioral change in prescribing medication to a patient suffering from COPD and one or more (co)morbidities.
