Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Tools that deliver information at point of care to assist in clinical decision-making (clinical decision support software, CDSS) have the potential to provider better clinical and operational outcomes through more personalized care. The advent of integrated electronic health record (EHR) systems makes the implementation of these tools more feasible. However, such implementation has not been widespread or well-coordinated. This special issue will focus on evidence related to the development, evaluation, implementation, and usage of CDSS types (e.g., best practice alerts, predictive models, hard decision alerts) for targeted health care services in diverse health care settings. Papers may address the implementation of CDSS at various levels, including policy, provider or patient perspectives, and include original research or reviews.
