Abstract
Objectives The Chronic Pain Treatment Tracker (Tx Tracker) is a prototype decision support tool to aid primary care clinicians when caring for patients with chronic noncancer pain. This study evaluated clinicians' perceived utility of Tx Tracker in meeting information needs and identifying treatment options, and preferences for visual design.
Methods We conducted 12 semi-structured interviews with primary care clinicians from four health systems in Indiana. The interviews were conducted in two waves, with prototype and interview guide revisions after the first six interviews. The interviews included exploration of Tx Tracker using a think-aloud approach and a clinical scenario. Clinicians were presented with a patient scenario and asked to use Tx Tracker to make a treatment recommendation. Last, participants answered several evaluation questions. Detailed field notes were collected, coded, and thematically analyzed by four analysts.
Results We identified several themes: the need for clinicians to be presented with a comprehensive patient history, the usefulness of Tx Tracker in patient discussions about treatment planning, potential usefulness of Tx Tracker for patients with high uncertainty or risk, potential usefulness of Tx Tracker in aggregating scattered information, variability in expectations about workflows, skepticism about underlying electronic health record data quality, interest in using Tx Tracker to annotate or update information, interest in using Tx Tracker to translate information to clinical action, desire for interface with visual cues for risks, warnings, or treatment options, and desire for interactive functionality.
Conclusion Tools like Tx Tracker, by aggregating key information about past, current, and potential future treatments, may help clinicians collaborate with their patients in choosing the best pain treatments. Still, the use and usefulness of Tx Tracker likely relies on continued improvement of its functionality, accurate and complete underlying data, and tailored integration with varying workflows, care team roles, and user preferences.

Background and Significance
Over the past two decades, as electronic health record (EHR) adoption has increased, so has the volume of electronic patient data that clinicians can access at the point of care, and use to support treatment decisions.[1] [2] [3] [4] Computerized clinical decision support can facilitate user interaction with these data to visualize trends and prompt clinical action.[5] [6] [7] [8] Yet, the proliferation of EHRs and electronic clinical information has also led some to describe the information environment in primary care settings as “chaotic” and potentially harmful to clinician decision making and stress levels.[9] [10] [11] Accordingly, innovations are needed to improve clinicians' experiences and patient information management when using EHRs, including when caring for chronic health conditions, such as chronic noncancer pain.[12] [13] [14] [15] [16]
With nearly half of Americans suffering from one or more chronic conditions,[17] [18] primary care clinicians often make complex treatment decisions with limited time and information.[19] [20] [21] [22] [23] In chronic noncancer pain care, decision-making complexity and time constraints are particularly relevant.[24] Specifically, chronic noncancer pain typically has biopsychosocial roots and myriad treatment options.[25] [26] [27] Moreover, commonly used pain treatments, such as opioids and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, are associated with numerous health risks and uncertain benefits.[25] [28] [29] [30] [31] Furthermore, patients with chronic noncancer pain often bring, to their clinical visits, long and varied histories of symptoms, treatments tried, and goals and preferences for their care. Because patients' histories are complex and individuals' values and preferences vary, chronic pain care may benefit from EHR-based clinical decision support[32] [33] [34] [35] that synthesizes and organizes key information, creating a structure that reduces time spent searching for and processing needed information. Moreover, this structure and time saving may allow primary care clinicians and their patients to engage more in shared decision making about pain treatment options.[36] [37] In chronic noncancer pain care, shared decision making typically involves clinicians and patients discussing pharmacologic treatments (including opioids), and nonpharmacologic treatments in the context of relative health risks, likely pain and functional benefits, as well as patients' goals and preferences.
The Chronic Pain Treatment Tracker (Tx Tracker) is a point-of-care visualization tool to better meet primary care clinicians' information needs, so they can engage patients in discussions about chronic noncancer pain treatments that best balance risks, benefits, and individual patient goals. Tx Tracker displays information about a patient's current and past treatments, potential new treatment options, trends in symptoms over time, and treatment risks, such as those related to opioid use disorder.[38] Prior to this study, we developed a Tx Tracker prototype based on a series of studies that identified primary care clinicians' information needs and decision-making challenges during visits by patients with chronic noncancer pain.[32] [35] [39] The prototype is an interactive application developed using the Axure prototyping tool (https://www.axure.com). While prior studies have evaluated decision support for opioid prescribing and chronic pain care,[40] [41] [42] this study is innovative because no prior evaluations focus on a tool to aid clinicians in choosing among many pain treatment options based on a presentation of past, current, and potential future treatments.
#
Objectives
In the context of point-of-care decision support for chronic noncancer pain, the objectives of this study were to (1) evaluate clinicians' perceived utility of Tx Tracker for identifying treatment options; (2) evaluate clinician's perceived clinical utility of Tx Tracker for meeting clinicians' point-of-care information needs; and (3) identify clinician preferences for layout and visual design of Tx Tracker. Our findings contribute to the ongoing development, implementation, and evaluation of Tx Tracker and other tools to support clinical information synthesis and treatment decision making for chronic pain and other chronic conditions.

Methods
Interviews
We conducted a scenario-based think-aloud evaluation study with 12 primary care clinicians from four health systems in the state of Indiana between February and May 2019. Scenario-based evaluations using think-aloud protocols are commonly used in technology usability studies, and in evaluations of complex medical decision making.[43] [44] [45] In support of an iterative design and evaluation process,[46] we conducted interviews in two waves. In the first wave, six interviews were conducted and preliminary review of participant feedback on usability was reviewed. Based on this preliminary analysis, the prototype interface was re-designed to address identified usability concerns, and additional interview questions were developed for consistency with the re-design. Next, we completed a second wave of six interviews. We recruited a total of 12 participants based on prior usability literature suggesting that most usability concerns can be identified with studies of 5 to 12 participants.[47] [48] Eligible participants were adult primary care clinicians (physicians) whose current practice included caring for patients with chronic noncancer pain. We recruited from four different health care systems that span rural and urban areas of Indiana. We recruited through our professional network, by approaching clinicians who had participated in a prior interview study about their information needs and decision-making processes for chronic noncancer pain.[39]
All 12 interviews consisted of background questions related to EHR utilization, current EHR functions that are useful, prototype exploration, the use of Tx Tracker in a hypothetical use case scenario, and evaluation questions. The moderator's guide, including the evaluation questions, use case scenario, and prototype exploration tasks, can be found in [Supplementary Appendix] (available in the online version). The background questions assessed clinicians' time spent using an EHR during work, number of terminals used in a typical workday, and tools used to track chronic pain treatment history in the EHR. These background questions were used to stimulate thought regarding the types of EHR tools clinicians use, and to place clinicians in a frame of mind that would aid recall of their daily clinical practice behavior. Next, clinicians freely explored the interactive prototype Tx Tracker on a notebook computer. Screenshots of the prototype are presented as [Figs. 1] and [2]. While exploring the prototype, clinicians were asked to think aloud to enable capture of their reactions, confusions, and interaction with the tool. Clinicians were encouraged to explore before proceeding to the use case scenario.

Next, the use case scenario was presented as a case history of a fictional patient with chronic noncancer pain that the clinician had been treating for many years. The case history corresponded to patient-specific details presented in the Tx Tracker prototype. After the use case scenario was read aloud to the clinicians, they were asked to use the tool to review the patient's information, to make a treatment recommendation, and then answer evaluation questions. These evaluation questions assessed how Tx Tracker compared with interfaces and workflows in the clinicians' current EHRs, what clinicians perceived as most and least clinically useful in Tx Tracker, the types of patients Tx Tracker would be most useful, and when during routine care delivery, clinicians would expect to use Tx Tracker.
Nearly all testing interviews were conducted in person; however, two interviews were conducted remotely using an online video conferencing program. Ten interviews included both a detailed note taker (E.C.D.) and the main interviewer (S.M.D.), and two interviews utilized one person as note taker and the main interviewer (S.M.D.). Interviews lasted approximately 60 minutes. Utilizing Zoom audio and video recording, user audio and clinician interactions with the computer screen were recorded. Audio was not transcribed but was utilized to further enhance the interview notes, immediately following each interview. The interview notes were coded utilizing Dedoose. The study was approved by the Indiana University Institutional Review Board. Participants provided informed consent prior to participating the interviews. Each participant received a $100 gift card in recognition of their time spent participating.

Analysis
To enhance rigor via triangulation, four researchers (E.C.D., S.M.D., C.A.H., K.S.A.) engaged in different phases of the analysis. Three researchers (E.C.D., S.M.D., and C.A.H.) were involved in prior studies to develop Tx Tracker[38] while K.S.A. was not previously involved. Two researchers (E.C.D., S.M.D.) jointly reviewed their interview notes and created a single, detailed composite note for each section of the user testing experience. For interviews with only one researcher present, the second researcher reviewed the audio and video recording from the session to record notes and then completed the joint review process. All notes were recorded in an excel file, with rows and columns corresponding to participants and interview questions/sections, respectively.
A full coding analysis of the interviews was conducted by two researchers (E.C.D., S.M.D.). To begin, the reviewers utilized an inductive method, allowing the data to guide code development, and jointly coded the first two interviews from each of the waves (total of four) and utilized the identified codes to develop the initial codebook. By including interviews from both waves, we generated a more robust representative sample of user responses to the prototype, both before and after the design change. E.C.D. and S.M.D. then independently coded the remaining interviews, and conducted meetings to discuss and resolve any disagreements in coding.
After the initial coding was complete, another two researchers (K.S.A., C.A.H.) conducted the thematic analysis. To mitigate bias, K.S.A. was purposively brought in because she was not previously involved with the prototype development. To complete the thematic analysis, K.S.A. and C.A.H. first met with the initial coders (S.M.D., E.C.D.) to review the codes and collaboratively align them to the research objectives. They then conducted a thematic analysis to identify emergent themes related to each research objective. Specifically, the list of codes generated in the first review was assigned to research objectives based on applicability of the code to the question ([Table 1]). Using a process of upward extraction, each researcher independently reviewed the coded excerpts assigned to each objective, identified, and recorded themes found within. They then met to discuss and reach consensus on the themes based on their independent processes. To help mitigate the potential for bias associated with C.A.H.'s involvement in the earlier development of Tx Tracker, these consensus meetings involved identifying and discussing differences in the independent analyses. This process was repeated for each research objective over the course of 1 month (three consensus sessions in total). A near-final list of themes was developed based on a consensus between the two researchers (K.S.A. and C.A.H.). Lastly, to further triangulate across data products and confirm the identified themes, K.S.A. conducted a final review of each interview's audio and video.

Results
Half of the participants where males (n = 6) and all have training in family medicine or internal medicine ([Table 2]). The participants practiced in 10 different primary care clinics that were part of four different health care systems, spanning rural and urban Indiana, and serving racially and socioeconomically diverse patient populations. In their clinics, participants used EHR systems from Epic, Cerner, or e-Clinical Works.
[Table 3] provides illustrative quotes and summarizes the themes we identified for each research objective: (1) perceived clinical utility of Tx Tracker for identifying treatment options; (2) perceived clinical utility of Tx Tracker for meeting clinicians' point-of-care information needs; and (3) clinician preferences for layout and visual design of Tx Tracker.
Abbreviations: EHR, electronic health record; GI, gastrointestinal.
Objective 1
Perceived clinical utility of Tx Tracker for Identifying Treatment Options
We identified three themes during the thematic analysis related to clinical utility of Tx Tracker. The first was a strong need for clinicians to be presented with a comprehensive patient history. Clinicians requested detailed treatment histories, preferably with context describing the rationale behind starting and stopping certain treatment options. Desired patient history included medication dosage/duration, dates of visits to all relevant providers, referrals, missed visits, and indications as to treatment adherence. Contextual information included specific pain diagnosis(es), goals, comorbidities, patient preferences, pain and function outcomes, and relevant laboratories (e.g., creatinine).
Second, clinicians reported that Tx Tracker would be useful to support discussions with patients about treatment planning. Clinicians indicated that patients were dissatisfied during visits when their provider did not know their full medical history, including what treatments had been tried in the past in relation to a list of possible treatment options. Clinicians also reported value in the ability to generate patient-specific printable informational handouts via Tx Tracker.
Third, clinicians indicated that a tool like Tx Tracker would be helpful in treatment planning for patients with high uncertainty or risk. Specifically, participants mentioned potential usefulness when planning treatment for new patients, colleagues' patients with whom they were unfamiliar, patients with uncontrolled pain, or patients who were at higher risk of adverse outcomes such as opioid misuse or overdose.

Objective 2
Perceived Clinical Utility of Tx Tracker for Meeting Clinicians' Point-of-Care Information Needs
Overall, clinicians found Tx Tracker to be useful in aggregating critical information that, in their current practice, was often scattered throughout the EHR and took time to find and synthesize into a coherent whole. Participants consistently noted that this would be applicable to other complex, chronic conditions as well. However, clinicians indicated that categories or groupings of clinical concepts (e.g., medications, referrals) should be well defined and understandable by a Tx Tracker user. Additionally, clinicians said all the treatment options (e.g., nutrition as well as medication) should be represented in Tx Tracker.
Clinicians varied in their expectations for the right place in the workflow and right team member to be utilizing Tx Tracker. More clinicians indicated that it would be useful for previsit patient review, though several clinicians also indicated in-visit usefulness. However, some clinicians expressed skepticism about having adequate time to use Tx Tracker, given time-constrained work schedules. They indicated that nursing or other team members may need to be responsible for data input and review. Also, some clinicians indicated that Tx Tracker would support other downstream workflows, such as prior authorization and documentation for billing and regulatory compliance.
Importantly, clinicians expressed skepticism about Tx Tracker reliably containing accurate, trustworthy, and relevant information. Clinicians expressed concerns about underlying EHR data quality and, thus, the ability of Tx Tracker to consistently display the most relevant information. Clinicians also noted several information needs that were not met by the current prototype. Examples of these information needs included the association of comorbidities to cautions/warnings, pain and function levels, laboratory history and trends, health information exchange integration of outside records, nonclinical treatment modalities, and insurance coverage. Participants also expressed value in Tx Tracker explicitly indicating when critical information (e.g., important laboratory values) was missing from the patient's EHR.
#
#
Objective 3
Clinician Preferences for Layout and Visual Design of Tx Tracker
First, participating clinicians expressed interest in using Tx Tracker to annotate or update information, which was not part of the current prototype. Annotating or updating includes items such as summarizing discussions, commenting on a note from a specialist, adding free text descriptions on past treatments, and the ability to drag and drop treatments across Tx Tracker sections.
Second, clinicians expressed a need for Tx Tracker to translate information into clinical action, functionality which was largely not present in the prototype. For example, interviewees noted the value of actions such as writing orders or assessing risk by checking a prescription drug monitoring program (PDMP) database. Also, participants suggested the value of translating information in Tx Tracker to actions such as messaging fellow clinicians, writing notes, and educating patients. Several participants mentioned the added utility of being able to print out patient education materials.
Third, through visual cues, clinicians indicated a preference for Tx Tracker calling attention to important risks or warnings, such as those related to pill counts, prescriptions, or comorbidities. Participants suggested additional use of colors and prominence of screen location to indicate the level of caution being highlighted. Participants also suggested using visual cues to relate treatment options to specific types of pain for which the option may be effective.
Finally, clinicians expressed that Tx Tracker should allow dynamic information seeking based on their use preferences, such as interactivity options that allow them to condense or expand on details about less or more critical information. Participants also suggested search functionality, such as to help them find critical laboratory values.

Discussion
To our knowledge, this study is the first to evaluate a decision support tool to aid clinicians in choosing among pain treatment options by summarizing past, current, and potential future treatments. With this summary, clinicians may be able to compare treatment options more efficiently, and better engage patients in discussing and choosing treatments that best balance risks, benefits, and patient goals (i.e., shared decision making). Indeed, clinicians in our study indicated the potential value of using Tx Tracker to facilitate discussion of treatment options based on each patient's unique medical history, to compare treatments to outcomes by visualizing pain versus treatments used over time, and to share patient education materials. An imperative in clinical decision support is providing the right information to the right person in the right format.[4] [33] By providing clinicians with summaries of past, current, and potential future treatments as well as with outcomes information and education materials, Tx Tracker may make it easier for clinicians and patients to actively discuss and choose the best pain treatments. Notably, participants expressed an interest in using Tx Tracker for patients who are at higher risk, such as for opioid misuse or overdose. When opioids are involved, shared decision making may be uniquely challenging.[49] Thus, Tx Tracker should continue to be evaluated in more realistic scenarios involving patient and clinician communication about opioid use for chronic pain.
This study identified other important findings related to Tx Tracker's potential to routinely meet primary care clinicians' information needs. Participants expressed support for the utility of an EHR-based tool that aggregates and synthesizes information that is often scattered across multiple places in an EHR. At the same time, clinicians expressed skepticism about the accuracy and relevancy of underlying EHR data on which the Tx Tracker display relies. Participating clinicians also expressed interest in including additional information in Tx Tracker, such as records from other providers, insurance coverage information, and laboratory results. Without complete and accurate information in the EHR, such as about past treatments tried and pain outcomes, Tx Tracker's usability in practice may be limited. This finding offers important guidance on future design and implementation work. Future design work should more closely assess the quality of real-world EHR data for patients with chronic pain, and its usability when presented via Tx Tracker or similar tools. This finding also suggests the value of continued work to improve EHR data quality, such as through health information exchange,[50] [51] standards-based data collection,[52] [53] and reliable natural language processing methods for extracting symptom and treatment information from unstructured clinical notes.[54] [55] Moreover, as we continue to develop Tx Tracker, we will consider ways to effectively include other pain-relevant data types, such as imaging and nonprimary care specialist notes and reports.
This study's finding also reinforced that the value of Tx Tracker will only be realized if it is well integrated with clinical workflows. Consistent with previous findings,[14] [56] clinicians varied in their expectations for when in clinical workflows, and by what types of users, Tx Tracker would be most useful. Some clinicians indicated a preference for previsit use, while others indicated a preference for in-visit use. These differences could reflect variability across multiple factors, such as clinician work style, patient visit volumes, support staff roles, or technology layouts within clinics (e.g., computer, monitor, and peripherals).
Relatedly, participating clinicians varied in their views of whom should use Tx Tracker. Some suggesting that medical assistants or nursing staff would be needed to input or review data. Some skepticisms were about having enough time to fully utilize Tx Tracker. These findings are consistent with prior clinical decision support research that finds that a strong understanding of clinical workflow is key to successful implementation.[56] [57] [58] [59] Furthermore, these findings reinforce the need for continued focus on assessing variability in clinician preferences and workflows, and for using socio-technical design and implementation strategies to tailor decision support for adoption and use across diverse clinical settings.[56] [57] [59] [60] In future work, we will also explore Tx Tracker's potential use by other specialties, such as by pain specialist physicians or by multidisciplinary teams conducting pain rounds or pain clinics.
This study offered several specific recommendations for improving the design of Tx Tracker. Clinicians suggested functionality to facilitate clinical action, such as note writing, order writing, messaging other providers, and accessing outside information (e.g., PDMP database). Clinical decision support that is actionable and helps clinicians more efficiently complete required tasks is more likely to be adopted and maintained in clinical practice.[61] [62] Finally, this study reinforced the potential for improving Tx Tracker design through better use of visual cues along with interactive features for high-level overview of information or examining the specific details.[63] In the context of chronic pain, such features may be useful for avoiding high-risk treatment choices, such as prescribing an opioid to patients with a history of opioid misuse or substance use disorder.
This study is not without limitations. First, this was a qualitative research study with a modest number of participants who practice adult primary care medicine in one state. These findings may not transfer beyond the sample, and we cannot provide quantitative estimates of clinician perceptions. Relatedly, while studies of 5 to 12 participants are thought to identify most usability concerns,[47] [48] such rules of thumb are imperfect. Thus, our study likely did not capture all possible user concerns. Still, the sample was diverse in terms of participant gender, patients served by participants, and health care organization. Second, the study was focused on a single clinical decision support tool designed to support chronic pain treatment decisions in primary care settings. While participants noted the potential use of a Tx Tracker-like tool for other conditions, our findings here may not generalize to decision support for other conditions. Third, given the preliminary nature of our study, we were not able to access actual use of Tx Tracker in clinical practice. We are currently conducting a randomized controlled trial of a decision support tool which includes Tx Tracker. This integration of Tx Tracker in the Epic EHR is ongoing at two academic health centers, and its evaluation as part of a pragmatic randomized controlled trial (ClinicalTrials.gov Registration number NCT04295135).
#
Conclusion
The widespread use of EHRs and proliferation of electronic patient information necessitate research on how to best organize information and communicate with clinicians at the point of care, especially when they are managing patients with complex and costly chronic conditions. Tools like Tx Tracker, by aggregating key information about past, current, and potential future treatments, may help clinicians collaborate with their patients in choosing the best pain treatments. Still, the use and usefulness of Tx Tracker likely relies on continued improvement of its functionality, accurate and complete underlying data, and tailored integration with varying workflows, care team roles, and user preferences.
#
Clinical Relevance Statement
Managing complex conditions, such as chronic noncancer pain, requires significant time and information, which are often not readily available to primary care clinicians. Decision support for this costly and prevalent condition has the potential to ease clinician cognitive burden, facilitate patient communication, and promote better patient health outcomes.

Multiple Choice Questions
-
When considering clinical decision support for management of chronic pain, what elements did clinicians identify as important?
-
Comprehensive patient history and dynamic interaction.
-
Only the current medications and active treatments be listed.
-
Visual cues to draw attention to warnings and potential treatment interactions.
-
Both a and c are important for usefulness and usability.
Correct Answer: The correct answer is option d. Clinicians expressed the importance of having a comprehensive patient history to guide treatment decisions as well as indicating patients feel strongly that clinicians should be aware of their history. Additionally, clinicians have a desire to act upon the information being presented to them, in terms of both recommendations and warnings related to treatment options. The ability to annotate and/or document directly within the system is also preferred (Objectives 1 and 3).
-
-
Among clinicians, there are still varied opinions on what implementation aspect of clinical decision support?
-
The need for actionable information.
-
When in the workflow it should be utilized.
-
Whether information presented should be comprehensive.
-
There are no varied opinions in this space.
Correct Answer: The correct answer is option b. A consistent theme throughout the interviews is the uncertainty as to when these types of clinical decision support are most helpful. There are some who expressed the desire to review this with the patient during the appointment and others who suggested the review may need to take place prior to the appointment and perhaps by nursing staff. There are concerns related to having enough time available to utilize the tool and as to whether the underlying EHR data will support accuracy (Objective 2, paragraph 2).
