Abstract

Adherence to CPGs diminishes when providers lack awareness, knowledge, resources, or structural support (Fisher et. al, 2016). Successfully implementing CPGs into practice involves finding strategies to overcome existing barriers. At a large acute care hospital, emergency department (ED) providers had varying levels of unfamiliarity and exposure to BFE guidelines. Tailored interventions catering to ED providers (e.g. physicians, residents, and advanced practitioners) were needed to help them correctly implement BFE procedures and reduce patient care fallouts. 

The purpose of this project was to increase provider adherence to BFE guidelines by 1) revising the BFE procedures to a more accessible, user-friendly version and by 2) providing education sessions to raise awareness.
