Information services provider Wolters Kluwer Health (WK Health), US, has announced that it has developed a multi-faceted approach to addressing alert fatigue through its Medi-Span clinical decision support solutions. Medi-Span is said to combine its functionality for alert customisation and regular clinical content updates with 35 years of on-site clinical consulting experience to create a holistic solution to the significant challenge of clinicians bypassing alerts.
To address the need for alert balance, Medi-Span Clinical allows for alert customisation by site, department or end-user to reduce the number of irrelevant alerts by user type. Alongside this customisation, the solution provides contextual alerting content that considers patient profile data such as symptoms, age, weight, gender and renal function to create smarter and more relevant alerts.
Medi-Span clinical decision support solutions are seen to back this with regular updating of clinical content based on industry changes, which eliminates outdated clinical alerts, and a team of seasoned consultants who can help healthcare organisations and users optimise the Medi-Span solutions within their systems.
