An electronic health record–based solution to reduce the volume of CBC differentials performed on inpatients
Our EHR-based solution resulted in a substantial and sustained decrease in CBC with differential tests and manual differential slide reviews performed in a critically ill pediatric population. This approach is a potential alternative to traditional educational and other clinician-dependent stewardship interventions that aim to improve test utilization.
