Description
Description
:Funded by a previous NIDDK K program, we developed, validated and piloted GlucAlertCDS. This is a real-time, electronic health records resource. The CDS tool recognizes diabetes optimization opportunities in the context of practice. Our work contributed to reductions in rates of glucose abnormalities and mediated shorter length of hospital stay, which was demonstrated in a previous pilot study. Our current R project is a clinical trial designed to study clinical, economic and practice performance outcomes of diabetes related to the implementation of GlucAlertCDS across care settings within the Penn State Health System. Our multidisciplinary team incorporates members from academic and community hospitals. The impact of our collaborative work derives from evaluating the impact of this innovative approach to help optimize the care of diabetes and glucose abnormalities in the hospital setting and transitions of care. The purpose is identifying potential solutions in clinical practice that can impact the care of a large number of patients across a health system, and which can be extrapolated to various health settings. Our study capitalizes on a rich database that support the main and secondary research questions of the program.
