Citation Okelo SO, Butz AM, Sharma R, Diette GB, Pitts SI, King TM, Linn ST,Reuben M, Chelladurai Y, Robinson KA. Interventions to modify health care provider adherence to asthma guidelines. Rockville: Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). Comparative Effectiveness Review No. 95. 2013 Authors' objectives To synthesize the published literature on the effect of interventions designed to improve health care providers' adherence to asthma guidelines on: (1) health care process outcomes (Key Question 1); (2) clinical outcomes (Key Question 2); (3) health care processes that subsequently impact clinical outcomes (Key Question 3). Authors' conclusions There is low to moderate evidence to support the use of decision support tools, feedback and audit, and clinical pharmacy support to improve the adherence of health care providers to asthma guidelines, as measured through health care process outcomes, and to improve clinical outcomes. There is a need to further evaluate health care provider-targeted interventions with a focus on standardized measures of outcomes and more rigorous study designs.
