Lessons learned from implementing service-oriented clinical decision support at four sites: a qualitative study.
This study identified challenges, lessons learned and best practices for service-oriented clinical decision support, based on the results of the Clinical Decision Support Consortium, a multi-site study which developed, implemented and evaluated clinical decision support services in a diverse range of electronic health records. Based on the challenges and lessons learned, there were eight best practices for developers and implementers of service-oriented clinical decision support.

Parent-reported outcomes of a shared decision-making portal in asthma: a practice-based RCT.
This study evaluated the feasibility, acceptability, and impact of MyAsthma, an EHR-linked patient portal supporting shared decision-making for pediatric asthma. It found that parents of children with moderate to severe persistent asthma used the portal more than others; 92 percent were satisfied with MyAsthma. Parents reported that use improved their communication with the office, ability to manage asthma, and awareness of the importance of ongoing attention to treatment.

Integrating the electronic health record into high-fidelity interprofessional intensive care unit simulations.
The authors described the impact of integrating the electronic health record (EHR) into high-fidelity, interprofessional intensive care unit (ICU) simulations, and the errors induced. They found a number of safety issues directly related to the EHR, and they now have an infrastructure to focus educational initiative and deploy informatics solutions to mitigate these safety issues.
