Algorithm to detect pediatric provider attention to high BMI and associated medical risk

We developed and validated an algorithm that uses combinations of extractable electronic-health-record (EHR) indicators (diagnosis codes, orders for laboratories, medications, and referrals) that denote widelyrecommended clinician practice behaviors: attention to overweight/obesity/body mass index alone (BMI Alone), with attention to hypertension/other comorbidities (BMI/Medical Risk), or neither (No Attention).
