Implementing an EHR guideline–based intervention in paper ordering systems.
2018
56Background: Studies show Colony Stimulating Factor (CSF) prescribing is inconsistent with national guidelines. SWOG trial S1415CD is a pragmatic study comparing outcomes of CSF use in usual care with care that uses guideline-informed standing CSF orders. The intervention includes embedded CSF orders based on Febrile Neutropenia (FN) risk and system note wording describing guideline recommendations. Of 24 intervention sites, five (20.8%) use paper, presenting the challenge of translating an electronic health record (EHR) intervention to paper order entry systems (OES). Methods: Paper sites were surveyed on their chemotherapy OES to inform translation of the intervention. We worked with sites to develop a workflow consistent with the key principles of the intervention: Recommendation language 1) is present before prescribing CSF, 2) reaches all study-authorized orders, 3) reaches all patients on study-authorized orders, and 4) chemotherapy and CSF are ordered before the patient is enrolled.
