Segmented regression analysis for the primary process and clinical outcomes before and after implementation of an enhanced electronic medication reconciliation system*
| Outcome | Slope, % (95% CI) | Absolute change immediately after implementation, % (95% CI) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Before implementation (per 2-mo interval) | After implementation (per 2-mo interval) | ||
| Process | 0.42 (0.20 to 0.64) | −0.40 (−0.61 to −0.19) | −7.00 (−9.50 to −4.50) |
| Clinical | 0.06 (−0.09 to 0.21) | −0.02 (−0.11 to 0.17) | −2.32 (−4.30 to −0.34) |
Note: CI = confidence interval.
↵* The primary process outcome was receipt of a medication of interest within 5 days of discharge. The primary clinical outcome was a hospital visit for a fall or fracture within 90 days of hospital discharge among patients who received a benzodiazepine or an antipsychotic in hospital.
