Study Summary

This trial will assess if a set of best practices can reduce cases of POD in people with cognitive impairment who undergo surgery. EHR data & CDS will be used.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adult patients with cognitive impairment who are undergoing surgery at Mount Sinai Health System. It's also for the healthcare providers there receiving alerts during electronic health record system use. Patients can't join if it's not their first surgery since the study started, they lack documented cognitive impairment, or if the surgery is for organ donation.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests whether clinical decision support (CDS) prompts in electronic health records can reduce postoperative delirium (POD) in high-risk patients with cognitive issues. Half of these patients will receive usual care; the other half will get special alerts and best practice recommendations.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this intervention involves information prompts rather than medications, traditional side effects aren't expected. However, there may be indirect effects on patient care based on how healthcare providers respond to these new CDS prompts.
