NCT06006910 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 7

Last updated 2024-02-14

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The goal of this prospective, historically-controlled, quality improvement project is to determine whether and to what extent an electronic health record (EHR)-based nudge affects rates of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) in older women with ER+, early-stage, clinically node negative breast cancer.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Column-based nudge in the EHR

The nudge is a column in EPIC that flags patients coming to the clinic as a new visit with documented ER+ breast cancer. The nudge flag can pop up when hovered over to remind surgeons of the Choosing Wisely criteria and to consider omission of SLNB.

BEHAVIORAL

No column-based nudge in the EHR

No intervention control period prior to nudge deployment.
