A Systematic Review on CDSS Alert Appropriateness.

Published: June 2020

Clinical decision support systems (CDSSs) provides vital information for managing patients by advising clinicians through an alert or reminders about adverse events and medication errors. Clinicians receive a high number of alerts, resulting in alert override and workflow disruptions. A systematic review was carried out to identify factors affecting CDSS alert appropriateness in supporting clinical workflows using a recently introduced framework. The review findings identified several influencing factors of CDSS alert appropriateness including: technology (usability, alert presentation, workload and data entry), human (training, knowledge and skills, attitude and behavior), organization (rules and regulation, privacy and security) and process (waste, delay, tuning and optimization). The findings can be used to guide the design of CDSS alert and minimise potential safety hazards associated with CDSS use.

Background:  Nephrotoxin exposure may worsen kidney injury and impair kidney recovery if continued in patients with acute kidney injury (AKI).

Objectives:  This study aimed to determine if tiered implementation of a clinical decision support system (CDSS) would reduce nephrotoxin use in cardiac surgery patients with AKI.

Methods:  We assessed patients admitted to the cardiac surgery intensive care unit at a tertiary care center from January 2020 to December 2021, and August 2022 to September 2023.

Barriers to Adoption of a Child-Abuse Clinical Decision Support System in Emergency Departments.

West J Emerg Med

November 2024

University of Pittsburgh, UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, Division of Child Advocacy, Department of Pediatrics, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Introduction: Child abuse is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in children. The rate of missed child abuse in general emergency departments (ED), where 85% of children are evaluated, is higher than in pediatric EDs. We sought to evaluate the impact of an electronic health record (EHR)-embedded child-abuse clinical decision support system (CA-CDSS) in the identification and evaluation of child maltreatment in a network of EDs three years after implementation.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the potential of lytic bacteriophages as alternative therapies to combat antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria, particularly focusing on phages that target E. coli.
  • Seven specific phage isolates were identified and analyzed through genome sequencing, revealing they possess double-stranded DNA with varying lengths and coding sequences, with most lacking tRNA genes.
  • The findings suggest that these phages could be utilized in treating bacterial infections and provide essential data for developing phage-based control strategies and understanding phage genetics.

Background: In prehospital emergency care, providers face significant challenges in making informed decisions due to factors such as limited cognitive support, high-stress environments, and lack of experience with certain patient conditions. Effective Clinical Decision Support Systems (CDSS) have great potential to alleviate these challenges. However, such systems have not yet been widely adopted in real-world practice and have found to cause workflow disruptions and usability issues.

Purpose: Anticholinergic drugs can cause adverse events (AEs) in older adults. Clinical decision support systems (CDSSs) can detect prescriptions with a high anticholinergic load. Our starting hypothesis was that the anticholinergic load could be reduced by combining a CDSS with a strategy for generating pharmacist interventions.
