OBJECTIVE: Although it is widely acknowledged that second-generation antipsychotics are associated with cardiometabolic side effects, rates of metabolic screening have remained low. The authors created a quality-improvement (QI) intervention in an academic medical center outpatient psychiatry resident clinic with the aim of improving rates of screening for metabolic syndrome in patients being prescribed antipsychotic medications.
METHODS: The core components of the QI intervention included resident education and creation of a metabolic screening bundle for the electronic medical record. Quarterly audits of individual patient electronic medical records assessed whether a patient was currently prescribed antipsychotics and whether metabolic-syndrome screening had been documented at any time in the preceding 12 months.
RESULTS: In each audit period, from 131 to 156 patients (30%-36% of total clinic sample) were prescribed antipsychotic medication. After the intervention, rates of documentation of the components of the metabolic screening bundle increased between 3.5- and 10-fold (final rates: 39% for blood pressure, 44% for BMI, and 55% for glucose and lipid panel). Rates of documenting the full bundle increased nearly 30-fold (final rate: 31%).
CONCLUSION: Provider-education combined with introduction of a documentation bundle in the electronic medical record increased rates of documented metabolic screening in patients being prescribed antipsychotic medications by psychiatry residents.
