Frenn, Kristin A.; Hendrickson, Marissa; Kharbanda, Anupam B.
- Abstract
The article discusses a multi-step, Web-based approached chosen by the Fairview Health System in Minnesota to educate providers and patient families to minimize unnecessary computed tomography (CT) scans using existing clinical decision rules for appendicitis and head trauma. Topics discussed include the main focus of the CT reduction strategy, sections of the content for the education Web site PEMguidelines.org, and a screen capture of parent information for head injury.
