The Effect of Implementation of Guideline Order Bundles Into a General Admission Order Set on Clinical Practice Guideline Adoption: Quasi-Experimental Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) and associated order sets can help standardize patient care and lead to higher-value patient care. However, difficult access and poor usability of these order sets can result in lower use rates and reduce the CPGs' impact on clinical outcomes. At our institution, we identified multiple CPGs for general pediatrics admissions where the appropriate order set was used in <50% of eligible encounters, leading to decreased adoption of CPG recommendations.

Objective

We aimed to determine how integrating disease-specific order groups into a common general admission order set influences adoption of CPG-specific order bundles for patients meeting CPG inclusion criteria admitted to the general pediatrics service.

Methods

We integrate
