Warfarin and Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAID) Customized Alert

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Warfarin and NSAID

In brief

The hypothesis is that a newly formatted electronic alert that requires the prescriber to pause and enter a specific "reason for override" on this alert, will cause prescribers in the intervention group to be significantly less likely to prescribe the combination of warfarin and NSAID than prescribers in the control group.
