Summary
This study tested a smart computer system that learns from each doctor's habits to suggest safer prescribing for older patients. About 1,249 patients aged 65+ and 70 primary care doctors took part. The goal was to see if personalized electronic health record reminders help doctors reduce or stop high-risk medications. The approach aims to improve safety without requiring patients to take new drugs long-term.
