Impact of clinical decision support on oritavancin prescribing in the emergency department. | LitMetric

Background: Emergency department (ED) visits and hospitalizations from skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs) have been on the rise and have led to an increased clinical and economic burden. Owing to their single-dose regimen, recently approved lipoglycopeptides such as oritavancin have the potential to shift the management of SSTIs from an inpatient to outpatient setting. Limited data exist regarding the use of these drugs in the ED setting.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to describe the impact that clinical decision support (CDS) incorporation into the computerized physician order entry (CPOE) system had on oritavancin use and to assess compliance with appropriate use guidelines in the ED.

Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study evaluating patients who received oritavancin from September 2016 to May 2018. The patients were assigned to the pre-CDS-implementation group if oritavancin was used between September 13, 2016, and June 28, 2017 and to the post-CDS-implementation group if oritavancin was used between August 28, 2017, and May 25, 2018. There was a 2-month transition period between the 2 study time periods. Patients were excluded if the administration occurred outside of the ED or during the transition period. The primary endpoints were oritavancin use and compliance with the appropriate use guidelines after the implementation.

Results: There were 169 oritavancin orders in total, of which 119 met the inclusion criteria. There was a marked decrease in use post-CDS implementation (9.2 orders/mo vs. 3 orders/mo). Among those who were prescribed oritavancin, compliance with the appropriate use guidelines increased; however, this did not reach statistical significance.

Conclusion: The implementation of the appropriate use guidelines with CDS integration into the CPOE system decreased overall oritavancin use but did not have an impact on compliance with the appropriate use guidelines.
