NCT ID NCT07008144
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a computer alert that pops up when a doctor prescribes too much digoxin can reduce risky prescribing in hospitalized patients aged 65 and older. Digoxin is a heart medication that can cause serious side effects if the dose is too high. The study will compare how often high doses are prescribed before and after the alert system is turned on.
