Study Summary

This trial will investigate how an allergy label can be safely removed in children, which can improve patient care & reduce healthcare costs.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for children in the hospital with a penicillin allergy label, who are considered low-risk for a true allergy based on standard questions asked when they're admitted. There's no exclusion criteria; however, doctors can choose not to use the decision support tool.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study tests if a clinical decision support (CDS) tool aimed at doctors or one led by pharmacists is better at removing unnecessary penicillin allergy labels from kids' medical records. It measures how often these labels are removed and looks at antibiotic use and hospital stay length.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this trial involves information management rather than direct patient treatment, there aren't typical medication side effects. However, inaccuracies in delabeling could lead to incorrect antibiotic administration.

Experimental Treatment

Active Control

Group I: Provider-targeted Clinical Decision Support ToolExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

This intervention will provide access to a best-practices alert (BPA) containing the patient's risk-stratification status and a link to the local standard of care protocol, oral amoxicillin challenge order set and written consent form (same resources as used in pharmacist -led electronic health record dashboard). If the provider opts to perform the oral challenge and it is successfully passed, a second BPA will prompt them to update the allergy status in the medical record.

Group II: Pharmacist-led EvaluationActive Control1 Intervention

Patients randomized to the pharmacist-led arm will appear in the pharmacy-penicillin electronic health care dashboard. A pharmacist may, at their discretion and in consultation with the primary care team, perform an allergy risk-stratification and oral challenge in low-risk patients using local standard of care protocol
