Abstract | Objective: The aim of the study was to determine the effect on occurrence of oral anticoagulant adverse drug events (ADEs) after implementation of a real-time clinical surveillance tool in a large health system. Methods: Records of patients receiving an oral anticoagulant during a 6-month period before and after implementation of a real-time clinical surveillance tool were reviewed for 31 hospitals within a nationwide health system. The real-time clinical surveillance tool analyzed clinical data from the electronic medical record and alerted the pharmacist of potential opportunities for patient clinical intervention. Oral anticoagulant administration data, International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Edition code documentation of ADEs caused by oral anticoagulants, and alert notification data from the real-time clinical surveillance tool were evaluated. Results: A total of 56,761 patients were included in the study. The oral anticoagulant ADE ratio decreased from 0.69% during the period before implementation of the real-time clinical surveillance tool to 0.41% during the period after implementation (P < 0.001). Most alert notifications and greatest impact on ADE ratio occurred in patients administered a single oral anticoagulant during hospitalization. Conclusions: Implementation of a real-time clinical surveillance tool prompting pharmacist intervention reduced the oral anticoagulant ADE ratio for the health system. |
