    A computerized alerting system for critical lab values helps doctors treat patients faster and more accurately. This system analyzes data to provide diagnostic interpretations and treatment plans for life-threatening abnormalities.

    Area of Science:

    • Clinical informatics
    • Medical diagnostics
    • Health information technology

    Background:

    • Life-threatening laboratory abnormalities require rapid detection and intervention.
    • Current methods for notifying physicians of critical values may have delays.
    • Integrated computer systems offer potential for improved clinical decision support.

    Observation:

    • A computerized alerting program was developed to detect, analyze, and interpret critical laboratory results.
    • The system generates diagnostic interpretations and treatment protocols.
    • Physicians were promptly notified of abnormal laboratory values via the alerting program.

    Findings:

    • Preliminary data indicates the alerting program facilitates quicker physician notification of critical lab values.
