For anyone using clinical survillance tech (e.g., Sentri7, VigiLanz, etc.), in addition to the fundamentals, what rules have you built for ADE monitoring/prevention? What cost savings, regulatory, or less common rules have you been able to create to enhance patient care and data capture?
I am currently using Sentri7. Items I have expanded our rules out to include:
-Antidotes, including those for extravasation. Added to trigger drugs.
-Added our IV to PO policy drugs for continual pharmacist driven route changes.
-Pregnancy CI drugs.
-Clozapine is rarely used so everyone forgets all the details around it. Added in temp, cardiac, and omission of doses to assist monitoring.
-Have a SNF as part of the health system, so BEERs criteria, psychoactive meds, etc. that CMS focuses on.
