The objectives of this study are to (1) test the feasibility of the clinical implementation of preemptive pharmacogenetic (PGx) testing in the emergency department (ED) and (2) determine if PGx testing (with appropriate decision support) decreases ED return visits and hospitalizations. We will conduct a randomized, controlled, pragmatic clinical trial assessing both the real-world effectiveness as well as implementation outcomes using a targeted PGx testing panel in several UF Health EDs.
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Adults 40 years or older presenting to a participating ED 2. Receipt of a new order/prescription for a selected PGx medication (Appendix 1), with a duration greater than 7 days, during the current ED visit or within 30 days prior. 3. Documentation of at least 2 prior ED or urgent care visits within the past 12 months Exclusion Criteria: 1. Prior clinical pharmacogenetic test results within the EHR for genes relevant for this study (Appendix 1). 2. History of hepatic or renal transplant 3. History of severe liver disease (stage Child-Pugh C) or renal disease eGFR \<15…
After consent and randomization into the immediate PGx testing, participants' results will (10-14 days after randomization) go into their EHR and be returned via a laminated results card
