ISMiHealth is a clinical decision support system, integrated into the primary care electronic health record (EHR) system, which aims to improve the performance of screening for infectious diseases and female genital mutilation (FGM) in migrants. Using the ISMiHealth programme, primary care professionals provide real-time indications with recommendations for the detection of infectious diseases and FGM aimed at the migrant population based on an individualized risk assessment. For this assessment, the demographic characteristics (sex, age and country of origin) of each individual migrant patient are taken into account. ISMiHealth is a unique and new program that offers an individualized approach, integrated into EHR systems and adaptable to different epidemiological changes. It is due to end a randomized control test per cluster in 35 primary care centers in Catalonia and a pilot random control test per cluster in a set of centers in Almeria (Andalusia). The intervention centers will implement the screening program collected by the ISMiHealth programming line, while the control centers will follow current routine practices. ISMiHealth aims to improve the health of migrants by reducing inequality and promoting high-quality healthcare services. ISMiHealth has been developed by ISGlobal, IDIAPJGol and CAPSBE.
