Podcast 712: Cephalosporin with a Penicillin Allergy
Manage episode 302199889 series 1397179
Contributor: Aaron Lessen, MD
Educational Pearls:
- Retrospective cohort study in the Kaiser system looked at over 4 million patients receiving antibiotics to determine the effect of penicillin allergy prompts in the EHR on antibiotic prescribing
- Half of the sites removed prompts stating penicillin allergy and half kept the prompts
- Patients with penicillin allergies who received cephalosporins went up from 20% to 27% in areas where the prompt was remove
- No difference in mortality or no new allergies found between the two groups
- Reduced the use of fluoroquinolones and clindamycin in the group without the prompt
