Description:
With the many commercial knowledge bases available, how can you determine which is the right one for your institution? What is the right level of alerts to set for pharmacists vs. physicians vs. nurses? Learn how to best use clinical decision support systems to support your staff and peers, and how to take a leadership role in your institution in managing these systems.
Learning Objectives:
- Compare the use of a commercial knowledge base with a custom set of rules developed at a hospital.
- Compare and contrast the advantages and disadvantages of utilizing order sets and protocols.
- Describe roles and skills needed to effectively manage your evaluation of available clinical decision support systems, implementation of such systems, and post-implementation measurement of success.
