Abstract
Implementation of a pharmacist-driven electronic vaccination tracking system and bundled order set may increase rates of vaccination among asplenic patients. Although this improvement was not statistically significant, it is still clinically impactful. One limitation of the study was many outpatient oncology pharmacists were not utilizing the tracking tool at the time of data collection. Projected vaccination rates are likely higher now that more pharmacists are aware of this tool.
