Summary

This study is a randomized controlled trial at eight hospitals within the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center-UPMC system. The project will assess the efficacy of a clinical surveillance system augmented with near real-time predictive analytics to support a pharmacist-led intervention delivered to attending physicians (primary service) to reduce the progression and complications of drug-associated acute kidney injury (D-AKI) in hospitalized (non-ICU) adults.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Level A

Pharmacy personnel will generate a general recommendation based on the AKI KDIGO management guidelines to the physician.

OTHER

Level B

The pharmacist will make nephrotoxic/renally eliminated medication management recommendations to the attending physician (or designee). Recommendations may include stopping or changing a drug, changing dose or schedule, ordering laboratory tests, taking no action, or other. The pharmacist will record details of the interaction with the physician and whether recommendations were accepted.

OTHER

Passive Alert

Passive Cerner alert provides decision support within the EMR for the diagnosis and basic staging of AKI but without specific recommendations for management.
