Designing and Evaluating Contextualized Drug-Drug Interaction Algorithms

Description

Abstract: Clinical decision support (CDS) for drug-drug interactions (DDIs) is often overridden or ignored because of a lack relevance to the patient’s clinical situation. We present 8 contextualized DDI CDS algorithms that use data available in electronic health records to increase specificity while retaining sensitivity. Document-based and computable knowledge artifacts were developed for all 8 DDIs. The computable artifacts were validated using synthetic patient data and then tested using retrospective data from a single urban hospital.

Describe the new knowledge and additional skills the participant will gain after attending your presentation.: The attendee will be able to test contextualized drug-drug interaction algorithms designed to permit healthcare providers, organizations, and systems to implement useful decision support to reduce patient harm.
