Compliance curves for asynchronous alerts. Proportions of patients with orders for electrolyte supplementation after newly reported low potassium (K+) (□) or magnesium (Mg2+) (▵) levels. The x-axis represents time to clinician order for supplementation. Clinician response is indicated for the control groups with open symbols (□, ▵) and dotted lines and for the study group with solid symbols (▪, ▴) and solid lines. Clinician response significantly improved in both situations with p < 0.0001 using the log-rank statistic.
