National Dental Practice-Based Research Network: Coordinating Center
NIDCR - National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research
About This Grant
PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT: The National Dental Practice-Based Research Network (Network) is a consortium of more than 8,000 dentists, hygienists, and other professionals committed to advancing dental practice. The NDPBRN embeds research in dental practices to conduct impactful research in oral and oral- systemic health. Practice-based research is invaluable for identifying trends in incidence and prevalence of oral (and other) health conditions, understanding current practitioner attitudes and practices, and studying the effectiveness of dental care delivery strategies in real-world settings. The CHR Data Coordinating Center serves as the Network Coordinating Center (NCC). During Cycle 3, the NCC seeks to optimize the productivity and impact of Network research and to impart and sustain rigor and high-quality data management practices. The NCC has created a “Year 8” work plan for the No Cost Extension (NCE) period to complete work associated with the Aims of the NCC’s parent award. Funds requested for this supplement will fill the NCC funding gap resulting from expanded resource requirements for study support and system development and from extended study start-up, recruitment and monitoring timelines. Year 8 NCC workplan activities are focused on maintaining HUB functionality and access; continuing provider enrollment and engagement; completing data analysis and dissemination; preparation of public use datasets and study datasets for study PIs; and updating and archiving important study documentation. The requested funds will serve to extend the timeframe and the capacity of NCC staff such that we will be able to sustain these network activities and resources for the full 12 months of the NCE period. The NCC has a 25-year history of successfully leading and participating in numerous collaborative multi- center studies and infrastructure development projects funded by NIH (NHLBI, NIDA, NIDCR), the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC), the Patient-Centered Research Outcomes Institute (PCORI) and industry. The NCC has managed data collection and other study- related activities for 17 NDPBRN studies since 2019.
