Brief Summary:
This study evaluates the effects of a novel integrated clinical prediction tool on antibiotic prescription patterns of nurses for acute respiratory infections (ARIs). The intervention is an EHR-integrated risk calculator and order set to help guide appropriate, evidence-based antibiotic prescriptions for patients presenting with ARI symptoms.
Detailed Description:
The proposed project will fill a critical gap in the evidence base and answer the important question: can pivoting ARI CDS tools towards nurses overcome established implementation barriers to reducing antibiotic use? The proposal is highly innovative in three ways: It uses CDS tools to embed evidence-based risk stratification to enable nurse-led ARI management. It creates a nurse training program to support this nurse-led ARI treatment pathway. It will be evaluated and optimized using evidence-based implementation frameworks that will guide assessment of the fidelity, acceptability, adoption, cost, and sustainability of the tool. This will provide comprehensive implementation measures, formative and summative, and enable a rigorous understanding of barriers and facilitators to implementing nurse-led CDS tools for reducing antibiotic overprescribing. This study will provide much needed guidance on how to implement CDS-enabled, nurse-led ARI assessment and treatment to reduce antibiotic overprescribing.
