Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Clinical Utility | Through study completion, an average of 1 year | Utilize real-world data from the commercial use of EsoGuard testing on samples collected with EsoCheck (EC/EG) to evaluate the impact of EsoGuard results on health care provider's decision for endoscopy referral. This will be measured by asking physicians how the EsoGuard result impacted their referral decision. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Patient Compliance | Through study completion, an average of 1 year | Assess patient compliance with recommendations for upper endoscopy, and relationship of compliance to positive EsoGuard results. This will be measured by collecting data on whether patients received an endoscopy after being referred. |
