摘要
We investigated the potential for using aggregated medical records to tailor educational programs and incorporating new research into daily practice to improve clinical performance. In the past, nephrotic syndrome, a severe form of urinary protein loss had been described as a risk factor for venous thromboembolism. In May 2009, JAMA reported that even microalbuminuria or early mild kidney dysfunction is also a risk factor for thromboembolism. We used our existing clinical data repository to determine: 1. Did emergency department patients with thromboembolism have higher prevalence rates of microalbuminuria? 2. Can we use the data repository to aggregate historic clinical data to assist clinicians in evaluating pre-test clinical risk and improve decision support?
