Push or pull? Digital notification platform implementation reduces dysglycaemia

Shrirajh Satheakeerthy et al. Intern Med J. 2024 Oct.

Abstract

Pushing selected information to clinicians, as opposed to the traditional method of clinicians pulling information from an electronic medical record, has the potential to improve care. A digital notification platform was designed by clinicians and implemented in a tertiary hospital to flag dysglycaemia. There were 112 patients included in the study, and the post-implementation group demonstrated lower rates of dysglycaemia (2.5% vs 1.1%, P = 0.038). These findings raise considerations for information delivery methods for multiple domains in contemporary healthcare.

Keywords: digital health; efficiency; outcomes; pragmatic; workflow.
