Alerts, Warnings, and AI
Learning Objectives
1. Describe clinical decision support and identify the role of warnings and recommendations in the EHR
2. Recognize how warnings are generated (human-determined parameters i.e. rule based vs learning AI systems)
3. Identify situations that may warrant overriding a warning and those that do not
4. Indicate key questions to ask yourself before ignoring or over-riding a warning
5. Define alert fatigue and how to avoid it
