The International Classification of Health Interventions (ICHI), currently being developed, seeks to span all sectors of the health system. Our objective was to determine the coverage of the ICHI for hearing interventions commonly delivered to adults with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL).

To describe challenges and solutions for calculating longitudinal daily opioid dose in morphine milligram equivalents from electronic health record prescriptions for a clinical trial of voluntary opioid reduction in patients with chronic non-cancer pain.

To develop CigStopper, a real-time, automated medical billing prototype designed to identify eligible tobacco cessation care codes, thereby reducing administrative workload while improving billing accuracy.

We analyzed interoperability-related Real World Testing results to identify whether developers are providing meaningful results with the appropriate context to enable stakeholders to understand the Certified Health IT conformance and interoperability when deployed in production environments.

In response to requests from several Rapid Acceleration of Diagnostics-Underserved Populations (RADx-UP) community-engaged research projects to include Long COVID common data elements (CDEs) in the existing RADx-UP CDEs, the RADx-UP Coordination and Data Collection Center (CDCC) leadership formed the Long COVID CDEs Task Force.

Despite growing recognition of the critical role of nutrition in promoting population health, clinicians lack access to point-of-care resources to support culturally relevant nutrition services. This study aims to (1) evaluate Registered Dietitian Nutritionists' (RDN) likelihood of using a web-based tool to provide culturally- and medically tailored nutrition services, (2) identify needed or preferred features, and (3) examine concerns related to the development or implementation of a web-based tool.

Delirium is a severe condition, often underreported and linked to adverse outcomes such as increased mortality and prolonged hospitalization. Despite its significance, delirium prediction is often hindered by underreporting and inconsistent labeling, highlighting the need for models trained on reliably labeled data (ground truth). This review examines (i) practices for determining labels in delirium prediction models and (ii) how study designs affect label quality, aiming to identify key considerations for [...]

The objective of the study was to determine, after medication review, the patient risk score threshold that would distinguish between stays with prescriptions triggering pharmacist intervention (PI) and stays with prescriptions not triggering PI.

Data-sharing policies are rapidly evolving toward increased data sharing. However, participants' perspectives are not well understood and could have an adverse impact on participation in research. We evaluated participants' preferences for sharing specific types of data with specific groups, and strategies to enhance trust in data-sharing practices.

To develop a continual process for linking more comprehensive external mortality data to electronic health records (EHRs) for a large healthcare system, which can serve as a template for other healthcare systems.
