83 Evolution of an Electronic Health Record-Based Alert to Optimize Venous Thromboembolism Prophylaxis
Introduction: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis in hospitalized patients requires carefully balancing bleeding and thrombosis risks. Electronic health record alerts (EHRAs) can help improve VTE prophylaxis and patient outcomes, but risk creating alert fatigue if not thoughtfully designed. Objective: Develop and refine an EHRA that minimizes unnecessary alerts while facilitating appropriate VTE prophylaxis ordering for medical patients.
