A shared decision-making tool for drug interactions between warfarin and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs: design and usability study.
Exposure to life-threatening drug-drug interactions (DDIs) occurs despite the widespread use of clinical decision support. The DDI between warfarin and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs is common and potentially life-threatening. Patients can play a substantial role in preventing harm from DDIs; however, the current model for DDI decision-making is clinician centric. This study aimed to design and examine the usability of DDInteract, a tool to support shared decision-making (SDM) between a patient and provider for the DDI between warfarin and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.

Recalibrating our approach to the management of sepsis: how the four moments of antibiotic decision-making can help.
In this paper, the authors describe The Four Moments of Antibiotic Decision Making. The Four Moments were conceived as part of the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) Safety Program for Improving Antibiotic Use. The Four Moments provide a pragmatic approach to the core principle of antibiotic stewardship – ensuring patients who require antibiotic therapy promptly receive regimens associated with clinical success, while protecting patients from potential harm associated with unnecessary exposure to antibiotics.
