"One of the key areas of focus was #MedicationAlerts. @CHNw and its partners, including @FDB_US, worked diligently to fine-tune these alerts, ensuring they were accurate and contextually appropriate." McGill explained.

The initiative resulted in a 70% reduction in the volume of irrelevant, non-actionable hyperkalemia alerts. Providers cut their overrides of these alerts in half. The change improved the clinician experience while protecting patients’ safety and health.

Dr. Levick will discuss how he formed a multidisciplinary team to implement FDB Targeted Medication Warnings™ to make frequently overridden medication decision support alerts for hyperkalemia more patient-specific at LVHN. 🧵⬇
