  2. Key Strategies • Scope: ALL adult inpatients • Standardized VTE Protocol – Caprini model • Mandatory risk assessment with CPOE hard-stop • Clinical decision support to drive clinical practice • Required documentation of contraindications with timed reminders to reassess q24 - 48H • Data feedback to services regarding performance • VTE prophylaxis included as peer review (OPPE) indicator for many services • Review of EVERY VTE event that occurs in the health system for preventability

  3. Closing the Gap… • VTE Risk Assessment embedded in all UM-Carelink admission order sets. • VTE risk factor reorganization based on Clinical Advisory Group feedback (by risk factor category rather than by points)- More user friendly • Providers must document clinically appropriate contraindications when deviating from recommendations • Hard stop within UM-Carelink requiring completion of VTE risk assessment prior to admission order submission. • Service specific data to facilitate discussions
