Clinical Decision Support Tool
The CDS in and AI algorithm that will alert clinicians only if patients have high risk of developing PPD, and provide clinicians with risk score, risk factors, and anticipatory actions with an order set to assist with ordering. Clinicians will make the ultimate clinical judgement after receiving CDS aid, including taking no actions towards PPD prevention. Clinicians will manage patients per usual care, including initiating PPD prevention such as conducting referrals to nutrition and behavioral health, suggest educational readings through patient portals, or no actions. Clinicians in the intervention arm will refer patients based on the CDS.
