Clinical Workflow
Improving Patient Safety and Clinician Cognitive Support Through eMAR Redesign
This study will examine usability and safety hazards of electronic medication administration records, with a focus on communication and information flow between health information technology applications.
Incorporating PRO Data Into RA Clinical Encounters Using Health-IT (PACT)
This project will develop and evaluate an an electronic dashboard to display patient reported outcomes for patients with rheumatoid arthritis that will facilitate clinician and patient conversations about their care.
Impact of Meaningful Use on Clinical Workflow in Emergency Departments
This research investigated how electronic health record use affected clinical workflow, efficiency, and quality of care in the emergency department, and developed recommendations for future stages of Meaningful Use.
Ambulatory Clinic Exam Room Design With Respect to Computing Devices to Enhance Patient Centeredness
This project studied the impact of changing the computing layout in a clinical exam room and evaluated its impact on workflow and patient centeredness.
Information Needs of Homecare Nurses During Admission and Care Planning
This project will analyze and model the information requirements, decisionmaking, and workflow of homecare nurses admitting patients and characterize if and how health information technology systems support their needs.
Finding the Safer Way: Novel Interaction Design Approaches to Health IT Safety
This project will study the impact of design on providers’ interactions with the electronic health record and identify strategies to enhance design to improve patient safety.
Physician Practice Variation in Electronic Health Record Use
This project examined the prevalence of variation in electronic health record documentation in physician practice, its causes, effects, and strategies to mitigate its potential for harm.
Improving Accuracy of Electronic Notes Using a Faster, Simpler Approach
This project developed, implemented, and evaluated a voice-generated enhanced electronic note system and found that it did not improve the time to finalize notes or clinician satisfaction.
Enhancing Providers' Ability to Follow Up on Abnormal Test Results
This project assessed provider mental workload and performance while processing electronic abnormal test results and found that a test result tracking mechanism improved physicians’ clinical performance.
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.
