Leveraging Informatics Tools to Reduce Lab Overutilization
Presentation Time: 05:30 PM - 07:00 PM
Abstract Keywords: Clinical Decision Support, Change Management, Healthcare Quality, Information Visualization, Laboratory Systems and Reporting
Primary Track: Applications
Programmatic Theme: Clinical Informatics
Up to two-thirds of lab tests in hospitalized patients may be unnecessary. Informatics tools can support the multimodal interventions necessary to create an effective and sustainable lab stewardship program, including education, clinical decision support (CDS), and clinician feedback. In addition to deploying multiple CDS interventions, we deployed health system-wide educational screensavers and built a customizable dashboard to monitor performance and enable service-specific feedback to support a new lab stewardship program in our health system.
