Developing Design Principles to Integrate Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROs) Into Clinical Practice Through Health Information Technology: Data, User Experience, and Workflow Requirements for PRO Dashboards
This project will develop design principles to enable more effective integration of patient-reported outcomes data into patient care activities through health information technology.
Sharing Patient Lifelog Data With the Primary Care Team for Two Patient Populations: Preventative Care & Chronic Disease Management
This project will apply an iterative, user-centered design process to understand the needs and attitudes for sharing patient-collected lifelog data with health care providers in order to improve health care management and decisionmaking.
Improving Accuracy of Electronic Notes Using a Faster, Simpler Approach
This project aims to refine, use, and evaluate a new method for creating electronic physician notes in the electronic medical record that improves accuracy and timely availability of inpatient progress notes.
Patients as Safeguards: Understanding the Information Needs of Hospitalized Patients
In an effort to reduce medical errors and adverse events, this project will determine the information needs of hospitalized patients and caregivers, and develop design requirements for a solution that supports communicating safety concerns to providers.
Addressing the Personal Health Information Management Needs of Older Adults
This project will examine the health information needs of older adults to inform the design of systems to support their health and independence.
Patient Self Monitoring to Transfer Physical Therapy Exercise from Clinic to Home
This project developed an image-based electronic health record to give patients visual feedback on home physical therapy exercises and provide that information to the physical therapist.
Modeling and Analysis of Clinical Care for Health Information Technology Improvement
This project aims to capture and understand how clinical work is actually done, and then to analyze how the efficiency and quality of care could be measurably improved through health information technology.
Workshop on Interactive Systems in Healthcare (WISH) 2012
The project supported the Workshop on Interactive Systems in Healthcare (WISH) that addresses design limitations and other issues that stymie the development and adoption of health information technology.
Evaluating the Impact of an ACPOE/CDS System on Outcomes
Implemented an ambulatory computer physician order entry (ACPOE) system with clinical decision support capabilities in an ambulatory, community-based, integrated health-system; evaluated the impact of the system both internally, on organizational processes and human factors, and externally, on patient safety as measured by medication errors and adverse drug events.
