Addressing Human Computer Interaction Issues of Electronic Health Record in Clinical Encounters

摘要

Electronic Health Records (EHRs) are known to reduce medical errors and store comprehensive patient information, and they also impact the physician-patient interaction during clinical encounters. This study reviewed the literature to (1) identify the most common challenges to patient-physician relations while using an EHR during a clinical visit, (2) discuss limitations of the research methodologies employed, and (3) suggest future research directions related to addressing human computer interaction issues when physicians use an EHR in clinical encounters.
