Summary
The PCI Lab researches the design, development, testing and implementation of new technologies and innovations in primary care. This includes using mHealth, point of care diagnostic tests, home blood pressure monitors, wearable devices, digital therapeutics, and developing data sharing infrastructure to support quality improvement and research using electronic health record data. We work closely with experts from the industry, UW research labs, and primary care clinics locally, regionally and nationally.
