BACKGROUND: Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is a complication of heparin exposure associated with high risk for morbidity and mortality. Diagnosis and management are complex due to limitations of laboratory testing and the need for nonheparin anticoagulation.
OBJECTIVES: To increase the delivery of evidence-based care of patients with suspected and confirmed HIT via electronic consultation (e-consult).
METHODS: We describe the creation and implementation of an e-consult service for patients with concern for HIT at a large academic medical center. Hematology physicians with HIT expertise performed real-time chart review of all patients with a positive screening immunoassay result and provided written recommendations in their electronic health record.
RESULTS: Comparison of outcomes for 1 year before and the year after the e-consult service implementation identified improvements in direct thrombin inhibitor stewardship, increased diagnostic accuracy, and decreased length of stay of patients with confirmed HIT.
CONCLUSION: The e-consult platform is a novel method for rapid, targeted consultative guidance, and this single-institution pilot demonstrates its feasibility and effectiveness to improve the care of patients with suspected and confirmed HIT.
