Pediatric emergence delirium is an undesirable outcome that is understudied. Development of a predictive model is an initial step toward reducing its occurrence. This study aimed to apply machine learning (ML) methods to a large clinical dataset to develop a predictive model for pediatric emergence delirium.

Gun violence remains a concerning and persistent issue in our country. Novel dashboards may integrate and summarize important clinical and non-clinical data that can inform targeted interventions to address the underlying causes of gun violence.

This article provides insight into our process and considerations for selecting patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) designed for self-reporting symptoms and quality-of-life among breast cancer (BCA) patients undergoing oral anticancer agent treatment via a patient-facing technology (PFT) platform.

A lack of pharmacist-specific risk-stratification scores in the electronic health record (EHR) may limit resource optimization. The medication regimen complexity-intensive care unit (MRC-ICU) score was implemented into our center's EHR for use by clinical pharmacists. The purpose of this evaluation was to evaluate MRC-ICU as a predictor of pharmacist workload and to assess its potential as an additional dimension to traditional workload measures.

To describe the reusable transformation process of electronic health records (EHR), claims, and prescriptions data into Observational Medical Outcome Partnership (OMOP) Common Data Model (CDM), together with challenges faced and solutions implemented.

To understand whether hospitals had electronic access to information needed to treat COVID-19 patients and identify factors contributing to differences in information availability.

We describe an automated transcription system that addresses many documentation problems and fits within scheduled clinical hours.

As part of its data modernization initiative (DMI), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Division of Cancer Prevention and Control is testing and implementing innovative solutions to improve cancer surveillance data quality and timeliness. We describe a consensus-based effort to create a framework to guide the evaluation of cancer surveillance modernization efforts by addressing specific context, processes, and costs related to cancer registration. We drew on prior theories, consulted [...]

The Multimodal Maternal Infant Perinatal Outpatient Delivery System (MOMI PODS) was developed to facilitate the pregnancy to postpartum primary care transition, particularly for individuals at risk for severe maternal morbidity, via a unique multidisciplinary model of mother/infant dyadic primary care. Specialized clinical informatics platforms are critical to ensuring the feasibility and scalability of MOMI PODS and a smooth perinatal transition into longitudinal postpartum primary care. In this manuscript, we describe [...]

We have previously developed a natural language processing pipeline using clinical notes written by epilepsy specialists to extract seizure freedom, seizure frequency text, and date of last seizure text for patients with epilepsy. It is important to understand how our methods generalize to new care contexts.
