Using the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Project to study risk adjustment in postoperative outcomes using social determinants of health, frailty and functional status. Subawards include UT Health Houston and University of Pittsburgh (two additional sites) and University of Texas Austin (statistics and predictive modeling expertise). We use census data from the American Community Survey at the block group level to assign proxy social risk factors and use natural language processing to develop predictive models of functional outcomes based upon nursing, physical therapy and occupational therapy note. |

The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio will deliver the Need 2 Know (N2K) Foster Care Curriculum to youth ages 10-15 in the Bexar County foster care system as well as to caregivers. In 10 interactive modules, N2K will address unhealthy relationships, dating violence, and risky sexual behavior. The curriculum enhances knowledge of physical development by providing medically accurate information about puberty, anatomy, and pregnancy, and emphasizes the role caregivers play in attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors. The 90-minute caregiver component, Parents Need 2 Know (PN2K), teaches caregivers about adolescent brain development, developmental assets, and communication skills. A summative evaluation will test the effectiveness of the N2K Foster Care Curriculum. |

ABSTRACT: San Antonio, the gateway to South Texas, is the 7*^ largest city in the US and the largest metropolitan area with a majority Hispanic population (63%). South Texas is about the size of Ohio, and comprises an impoverished and largely Hispanic population with disproportionate rates of diabetes and obesity, exacerbated by a lack of health insurance and poor access to health care. This region also contains numerous US military installations, and active-duty service members and veterans often have special health issues, including risk for post-traumatic stress disorder and traumatic injuries. Unfortunately, neither better access to care nor improved care delivery can eliminate health disparities and meet these complex needs, in addition, research across the full T1 to T4 translational spectrum is required to eliminate knowledge gaps and establish real-world effectiveness that improves health care for our populations. In 2006, UTHSCSA established the Institute for Integration of Medicine and Science (IIMS) to improve health and reduce disparities by accelerating scientific discoveries and applications across the full translational research spectrum. For example, IIMS expanded the number of clinical research units that extend to the Texas-Mexico border from 1 to 7, and dramatically increasing participant access to clinical and translational science. We increased, from 2 to 6, the Practice-Based Research Networks that focus on diverse ambulatory populations. Efforts to address tr |

The Culinary Health Education for Families program (CHEF) provides a culturally relevant pathway for individuals to adopt and sustain healthy eating habits through culinary and nutritional education and demonstration for children and their families. The goals of the program are to provide, evaluate, and continuously improve educational activities for children and their families in a community setting, including after-school program activities and summer classes, and drive organizational change in community partners to develop policies and systems to initiate a culture of health and wellness. Our team of DEB and IHPR researchers provides the data-driven evaluation of the effectiveness of CHEF community program to provide unbiased and scientifically valid conclusions on measurable outcomes, including knowledge, culinary skills, eating behavior, and self-efficacy of children participating in the CHEF program. The evaluation team uses state-of-the-art tools for data collection, management, and statistical analyses with the goal to become recognized leaders in the field of improving dietary health in this population. |

Get Waivered Texas: Implementation and evaluation of buprenorphine waiver training surge to address the opioid crisis. |

| Grant Detail |
The goal of this project is to address the shortage of waivered physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants in Texas by expanding treatment capacity for medication assisted treatment for opioid use disorder (OUD) using buprenorphine. Using implementation science, project aims include: 1) provide access to buprenorphine waiver trainings to target regions and health care providers across Texas, including rural areas and 2) facilitate completion of all DATA-2000 waiver requirements. The following objectives will be completed: 1) identify high priority regions and healthcare settings to implement training; 2) promote awareness of the need for buprenorphine waivered health care professionals; 3) provide DATA-2000 (DEA X) training, and 4) facilitate submission and completion of waiver requirements to SAMHSA. Increasing treatment capacity by training providers helps redress the current disparity that occurs because of decreased accessibility in underserved and rural areas; areas of which make up a large portion of the Texas landscape.
