To determine the effects of using unstructured clinical text in machine learning (ML) for prediction, early detection, and identification of sepsis.

Primary care EHR data are often of clinical importance to cohort studies however they require careful handling. Challenges include determining the periods during which EHR data were collected. Participants are typically censored when they deregister from a medical practice, however, cohort studies wish to follow participants longitudinally including those that change practice. Using UK Biobank as an exemplar, we developed methodology to infer continuous periods of data collection and maximize [...]

Reducing suicidal behavior among patients in the healthcare system requires accurate and explainable predictive models of suicide risk across diverse healthcare settings.

The study provides considerations for generating a phenotype of child abuse and neglect in Emergency Departments (ED) using secondary data from electronic health records (EHR). Implications will be provided for racial bias reduction and the development of further decision support tools to assist in identifying child abuse and neglect.

The proliferation of m-health interventions has led to a growing research area of app analysis. We derived RACE (Review, Assess, Classify, and Evaluate) framework through the integration of existing methodologies for the purpose of analyzing m-health apps, and applied it to study opioid apps.

The Global Digital Exemplar (GDE) Programme is a national initiative to promote digitally enabled transformation in English provider organizations. The Programme applied benefits realization management techniques to promote and demonstrate transformative outcomes. This work was part of an independent national evaluation of the GDE Programme.

This study aimed to understand the association between primary care physician (PCP) proficiency with the electronic health record (EHR) system and time spent interacting with the EHR.

The COVID-19 pandemic changed clinician electronic health record (EHR) work in a multitude of ways. To evaluate how, we measure ambulatory clinician EHR use in the United States throughout the COVID-19 pandemic.

To determine whether hospital adoption of a new electronic health record (EHR) developer increases patient sharing with hospitals using the same developer.

Accurate representation of clinical sex and gender identity in interoperable clinical systems is a major challenge for organizations intent on improving outcomes for sex- and gender-marginalized people. Improved data collection has been hindered by the historical approach that presumed a single, often binary, datum was sufficient. We describe the Health Level Seven International (HL7) Gender Harmony logical model that proposes an improved approach.
