Evidence-Based Validation and Improvement of Electronic Health Record Systems

摘要

A program of research on methodology for "evidence-based" validation and improvement of electronic health record systems and related health information systems is proposed. This program would integrate existing ideas from software engineering and health informatics with new techniques for analyzing a combination of usage data, clinical data, and execution data, to support scientifically sound methods for measuring and enhancing the safety and efficacy of EHR systems.
