Impacts Of Fasting Holy Month Of Ramadan During Pregnancy On Pregnancy/Birth Outcomes: An Umbrella Review, Md Estiar Rahman, May Salama, Abdullah Al-Taiar

Health Equity and Quality Improvement (HEQI) Summit

Background

Problem: Patients discharged from the hospital on antimicrobial agents often receive insufficient education about potential side effects that warrant medical attention(1). We identified a critical gap in patient communication and safety that occurred during discharge at a large urban academic center.

Stakeholders

• Patients
• Physicians
• Nurses
• Pharmacists
• Outpatient providers
• Nurse practitioners
• Physician assistants

Objective: This project aimed to utilize a multidisciplinary team to:

1. Quantify a gap in patient education
2. Create an interactive navigator- which would not rely on provider memory and automatically include relevant information in patient discharge paperwork
3. Implement within 3 months into the EPIC system
4. Measure the effect …
