Popis: | Compliance with cardiac performance measures for guideline-directed medical therapy remains suboptimal. There is a compelling need to identify modifiable factors that influence compliance rates, so that these factors can be addressed as targets of quality improvement. This study examines the relationship between cardiovascular provider experience and compliance with performance measures for outpatients with coronary artery disease (CAD), heart failure, and atrial fibrillation in the PINNACLE Registry. We hypothesize that providers who have been practicing longer, especially those further out from certification who may not be required to recertify, will have lower compliance rates with key cardiac performance measures. Using clinical data from January 1, 2013 to March 31, 2014 in the PINNACLE Registry, we employed a multilevel hierarchical logistic regression analysis to examine the relationship between cardiac performance measures and provider experience, defined by the number of years since initial cardiology board certification ( |
