A systematic review of the value of clinical decision support systems in the prescription of antidiabetic drugs

Résumé

Introduction The management of chronic diabetes mellitus and its complications demands customized glycaemia control strategies. Polypharmacy is prevalent among people with diabetes and comorbidities, which increases the risk of adverse drug reactions. Clinical decision support systems (CDSSs) may constitute an innovative solution to these problems. The aim of our study was to conduct a systematic review assessing the value of CDSSs for the management of antidiabetic drugs (AD). Materials and Methods We systematically searched the scientific literature published between January 2010 and October 2023. The retrieved studies were categorized as non-specific or AD-specific. The studies’ quality was assessed using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool. The review’s results were reported in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines. Results Twenty studies met our inclusion criteria. The majority of AD-specific studies were conducted more recently (2020–2023) compared to non-specific studies (2010–2015). This trend hints at growing interest in more specialized CDSSs tailored for prescriptions of ADs. The nine AD-specific studies focused on metformin and insulin and demonstrated positive impacts of the CDSSs on different outcomes, including the reduction in the proportion of inappropriate prescriptions of ADs and in hypoglycaemia events. The 11 nonspecific studies showed similar trends for metformin and insulin prescriptions, although the CDSSs’ impacts were not significant. There was a predominance of metformin and insulin in the studied CDSSs and a lack of studies on ADs such as sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists. Conclusion The limited number of studies, especially randomized clinical trials, interested in evaluating the application of CDSS in the management of ADs underscores the need for further investigations. Our findings suggest the potential benefit of applying CDSSs to the prescription of ADs particularly in primary care settings and when targeting clinical pharmacists. Finally, establishing core outcome sets is crucial for ensuring consistent and standardized evaluation of these CDSSs.
