This study evaluates the effect of speech recognition software Dragon Medical One (DMO) on physician documentation burden and EHR workflows using Epic Signal usage metrics.

This study evaluated the usability of EzList, a Brazilian digital platform developed to optimize elective surgical waitlist management.

Many institutions have reported poor mapping of laboratory results to Logical Observation Identifiers Names and Codes (LOINC). A human in the loop machine learning approach for clinical terminology management may help.

Hospital supply rooms are dense, vertically complex environments where clinicians may lose time locating items. Existing text-based inventory logs require mental translation from alphanumeric codes to physical space, adding cognitive load during time-sensitive tasks. Despite growing use of digital twins in health care, this technology has been underreported in supply room navigation.

To support the artificial intelligence (AI) lifecycle in an integrated academic health system, we implemented a modular monitoring system to oversee electronic health record (EHR) vendor-provided clinical predictive models. This case study describes the lessons learned using this modular system to support sustainable oversight of the deployed predictive models across their lifecycle.

Admission history and physical (H&P) notes influence inpatient documentation, risk adjustment, and reimbursement. In high-acuity settings, time constraints and fragmented chart data contribute to under-documentation of comorbidities. Generative AI systems that draft admission notes from existing electronic health record data may improve documentation completeness, but real-world inpatient performance remains insufficiently characterized.

Ensuring data quality and maintaining remote accessibility remain key challenges in clinical trials conducted in low-resource settings. Although several software platforms and digital tools attempt to address these challenges, no single, comprehensive solution adequately meets the complex demands of decentralized and intermittently connected trial environments. Consequently, context-specific tools must be developed and adapted to ensure reliable performance under such constraints.

The current study examined the relationship between nursing informatics competency (NIC) and perceived clinical decision-making (CDM) skills among nurses in Saudi Arabia.

The amount of time ambulatory physicians spend in an electronic health record (EHR) outside scheduled hours has grown in recent years and been linked to burnout. Measures provided by EHR vendors can help health systems track EHR use outside scheduled hours, but different measures track different periods of EHR use and none currently tracks all EHR use outside patient scheduled hours. How much vendor-derived measures differ from one another or [...]

Acute care providers lack an easy way to assess their prescribing practices and track future-related care for their patients. Thus, we conducted design evaluations and subject matter expert (SME) design sessions in a user-centered design (UCD) approach to develop an audit and feedback tool that provides individualized, scalable prescribing feedback to clinical providers about their antibiotic and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) prescriptions in unplanned care settings (e.g., emergency department and [...]
