The intervention consists of introducing computerized alerts into the electronic medical record of the CSAPG (MIRA software), which are triggered when a physician prescribes digoxin at a dose higher than the recommended amount (more than 0.125 mg/day). The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a visible computerized alert aimed at physicians responsible for hospitalized elderly patients who have been prescribed digoxin at a dose higher than 0.125 mg/day (the recommended dose), in reducing the number of patients receiving inappropriate digoxin doses.
