ABSTRACT
Acute Heart failure (AHF) is among the most frequent causes of hospitalization in the United States, contributing to substantial health care costs, morbidity, and mortality. Inpatient initiation of guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) is recommended for patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) to reduce the risk of cardiovascular death or HF hospitalization. However, underutilization of GDMT prior to discharge is pervasive, representing a valuable missed opportunity to optimize evidence-based care. The PRagmatic Trial Of Messaging to Providers about Treatment of Acute Heart Failure tests the effectiveness of an electronic health record embedded clinical decision support system that informs providers during hospital management about indicated but not yet prescribed GDMT for eligible AHF patients with HFrEF. PRagmatic Trial Of Messaging to Providers about Treatment of Acute Heart Failureis an open-label, multicenter, pragmatic randomized controlled trial of 1,012 patients hospitalized with HFrEF. Eligible patients randomized to the intervention group are exposed to a tailored best practice advisory embedded within the electronic health record that alerts providers to prescribe omitted GDMT. The primary outcome is an increase in the proportion of additional GDMT medication classes prescribed at the time of discharge compared to those in the usual care arm.
