Medication Administered in Error Clinical Trial
Official title:
Novel Application of Simulation for Providers to Overcome Decisional Gaps in High-risk Prescribing
This pilot project aims to reduce the prescribing of high-risk medications, such as antipsychotics and benzodiazepines, to hospitalized older adults. To accomplish this, this project consists of two phases. The purpose is to determine whether a novel simulation-based training program reduces prescribing of suboptimal medications for older adults. A 2-arm pilot randomized controlled trial will be conducted to test a simulation-based, principle-driven intervention targeting high-risk prescribing practices versus control.
The overarching goal is to determine whether a newly-designed simulation-based training program for providers based on underlying principles of System 1 and System 2 thinking reduces prescribing of high-risk medications for hospitalized older adults versus control, with the ultimate goal of improving patient safety. Subsequent prescribing for patients cared for by other providers and other adoption and implementation outcomes will be measured to explore the extent to which the intervention could be used at scale. 36 interns practicing on the general medicine inpatient service at Brigham and Women's Hospital will be assigned to the "twilight" team. Interns who consent will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to one of 2 arms: (a) Arm 1: simulation training and (b) Arm 2: control (online educational training). Patients who will be included in the analysis will include adults ≥65 years old who are admitted to the BWH/BWFH general medicine service under the care of one of the consenting interns (specifically, with the intern listed as the "Responding Clinician") ;
