Study Benefits

• Estimated cost saving of over $500,000.00/year

• Decreased phlebotomy and in theory decreased iatrogenic anemia

• Decreased secondary lab draws

Pageler PCCM 2013

Study Limitations

• A single PICU with trainees entering all orders.• Severity of illness decreased in the post-

intervention period• Trend toward decreased utilization was noted

in the pre-intervention period.
