A Calculated Risk: Evaluation of QTc Drug-Drug Interaction (DDI) Clinical Decision Support (CDS) Alerts and Performance of the Tisdale Risk Score Calculator.
Introduction: A risk factor for a potentially fatal ventricular arrhythmia Torsade de Pointes is a prolongation in the heart rate-corrected QT interval (QTc) ≥ 500 milliseconds (ms) or an increase of ≥ 60 ms from a patient's baseline value, which can cause sudden cardiac death. The Tisdale risk score calculator uses clinical variables to predict which hospitalized patients are at the highest risk for QTc prolongation.
Objective: To determine the rate of overridden QTc drug-drug interaction (DDI)-related clinical decision support (CDS) alerts per patient admission and the prevalence by Tisdale risk score category of these overridden alerts. Secondary outcome was to determine the rate of drug-induced QTc prolongation (diQTP) associated with overrides.
Methods: Our organization's enterprise data warehouse was used to retrospectively access QTc DDI alerts presented for patients aged ≥ 18 years who were admitted to Brigham and Women's Hospital during 2022. The QTc DDI CDS alerts were included if shown to a physician, fellow, resident, physician assistant, or nurse practitioner when entering the order in inpatient areas for patients with a length of stay of at least 2 days. Variables collected for the Tisdale calculator included age, sex, whether patient was on a loop diuretic, potassium level, admission QTc value, admitting diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction, sepsis, or heart failure, and number of QTc-prolonging drugs given to the patient.
Results: A total of 2649 patients with 3033 patient admissions had 18,432 QTc DDI alerts presented that were overridden. An average of 3 unique QTc DDI alerts were presented per patient admission and the alerts were overridden an average of 6 times per patient admission. Overall, 6% of patient admissions were low risk (score ≤ 6), 64% moderate risk (score 7-10), and 30% high risk (score ≥ 11) of QTc prolongation. The most common QTc DDI alerts overridden resulting in an diQTP were quetiapine and propofol (11%) and amiodarone and haloperidol (7%). The diQTP occurred in 883 of patient admissions (29%) and was more frequent in those with higher risk score, with 46% of patient admissions with diQTP in high risk, 23% in moderate risk, and 8% in low risk.
Conclusion: Use of the Tisdale calculator to assess patient-specific risk of QT prolongation combined with CDS may improve overall alert quality and acceptance rate, which may decrease the diQTP rate.
期刊介绍:
Drug Safety is the official journal of the International Society of Pharmacovigilance. The journal includes:
Overviews of contentious or emerging issues.
Comprehensive narrative reviews that provide an authoritative source of information on epidemiology, clinical features, prevention and management of adverse effects of individual drugs and drug classes.
In-depth benefit-risk assessment of adverse effect and efficacy data for a drug in a defined therapeutic area.
Systematic reviews (with or without meta-analyses) that collate empirical evidence to answer a specific research question, using explicit, systematic methods as outlined by the PRISMA statement.
Original research articles reporting the results of well-designed studies in disciplines such as pharmacoepidemiology, pharmacovigilance, pharmacology and toxicology, and pharmacogenomics.
Editorials and commentaries on topical issues.
Additional digital features (including animated abstracts, video abstracts, slide decks, audio slides, instructional videos, infographics, podcasts and animations) can be published with articles; these are designed to increase the visibility, readership and educational value of the journal’s content. In addition, articles published in Drug Safety Drugs may be accompanied by plain language summaries to assist readers who have some knowledge of, but not in-depth expertise in, the area to understand important medical advances.
