Hospital tech & pharmacists team up to stop dangerous drug side effects
NCT ID NCT05923983
Summary
This study tested a new hospital computer system designed to prevent serious side effects from medications, specifically sudden kidney failure and high potassium levels, in older patients. The system used smarter alerts that were reviewed by pharmacists before being sent to doctors, aiming to reduce false alarms and interruptions. Researchers compared how often these side effects occurred in patients whose care used this new system versus the usual hospital process.
