IMPACT Grand Rounds: What Does it Really Take? Establishing a Learning Health System

This grand rounds presentation will describe how to use rapid A/B testing to support a learning health system: an environment in which clinical care, data, research, and implementation are intentionally connected to continuously improve outcomes. It will highlight practical strategies for turning routinely collected data into actionable knowledge; embedding evidence-based practices into clinical workflows; and rigorously evaluating innovations through randomized implementation studies, and rapid feedback loops.
