BACKGROUND: Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) are underprescribed for patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).
OBJECTIVES: This study sought to compare effectiveness of 2 automated, electronic health record-embedded tools vs usual care on MRA prescribing in eligible patients with HFrEF.
METHODS: BETTER CARE-HF (Building Electronic Tools to Enhance and Reinforce Cardiovascular Recommendations for Heart Failure) was a 3-arm, pragmatic, cluster-randomized trial comparing the effectiveness of an alert during individual patient encounters vs a message about multiple patients between encounters vs usual care on MRA prescribing. This study included adult patients with HFrEF, no active MRA prescription, no contraindication to MRAs, and an outpatient cardiologist in a large health system. Patients were cluster-randomized by cardiologist (60 per arm).
RESULTS: The study included 2,211 patients (alert: 755, message: 812, usual care [control]: 644), with average age 72.2 years, average ejection fraction 33%, who were predominantly male (71.4%) and White (68.9%). New MRA prescribing occurred in 29.6% of patients in the alert arm, 15.6% in the message arm, and 11.7% in the control arm. The alert more than doubled MRA prescribing compared to usual care (relative risk: 2.53; 95% CI: 1.77-3.62; P < 0.0001) and improved MRA prescribing compared to the message (relative risk: 1.67; 95% CI: 1.21-2.29; P = 0.002). The number of patients with alert needed to result in an additional MRA prescription was 5.6.
CONCLUSIONS: An automated, patient-specific, electronic health record-embedded alert increased MRA prescribing compared to both a message and usual care. These findings highlight the potential for electronic health record-embedded tools to substantially increase prescription of life-saving therapies for HFrEF.
