Logical framework activity health and medicine homework help
if you’d like to practice a bit after the logical framework lecture, this is an activity for you. Please develop a logical framework for the CDSS PSA project with 4 levels of objectives, critical assumptions, verifiable indicators, and means of verification and post it here!
This is another student’s post to help you start the work
| Verifiable Indicators | Means of verification | Critical assumptions | ||
| Goal | Decrease harm associated with over-screening of PSA testing | Decreased rate of prostate biopsies | EMR data | Patients agree with the risk/benefit analysis that recommends against PSA screening in all populations regardless of evidence based practices |
| Outcome | Decrease rate of PSA screening in men with low and moderate life expectancy | Rate of PSA testing | EMR data | Over-screening in vulnerable populations leads to greater risk of side effects from unnecessary testing and procedures without a substantial increase in benefit derived. |
| Output | All JHCP providers use the education and CDSS tools to inform decision making re: screening | Provider compliance with CDSS recommendations | Chart review of randomly selected patients across all 10 JHCP sites | Individual patient characteristics unaccounted for in the CDSS development process do not unduly impact provider compliance with the recommendations for testing. |
