Evaluation of the Impact of EHR-Alerts on Clinical Decision Support Pathway Use in Bronchiolitis, and the Impact of Pathway Use on the Prescription of High Flow Nasal Cannula and Other Elements of High Value Care.

The goal of this experimental study is to learn whether different types of Electronic Health Record (EHR) alerts that direct clinicians to reference clinical guidelines embedded in the increase the use of these guidelines and the delivery of evidence-based care in children presenting to the hospital with bronchiolitis. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do EHR-alerts increase clinicians' us of evidence-based EHR-integrated Clinical Decision Support (CDS) guidelines for the care of bronchiolitis and * Is the use of EHR-integrated CDS-guidelines for the care of bronchiolitis associated with deceases in low-value use of High Flow Nasal Cannula (HFNC) and improvement in other aspects of high-value care for this disease Patients will be randomized on the encounter-level to have the patient's treating providers receive no EHR-alert or one of two types of EHR-alert (non-interruptive or interruptive) reminding the provider that the EHR-integrated CDS guideline is available for the care or bronchiolitis. Researchers will compare the rate of use of EHR-integrated CDS guidelines in patients whose clinicians did not receive any EHR-alerts, to those whose clinicians received a non-interruptive alert and to those whose clinicians received an interruptive Best Practice Advisory (BPA). In addition, the study will evaluate whether the utilization of the EHR-integrated CDS guideline in a given encounter was associated with less low-value HFNC use, and differences in other elements o…
