Adoption of electronic medical record-based decision support for otitis media in children.
The authors characterized adoption of an otitis media clinical decision support (CDS) system, the impact of performance feedback on adoption, and the effects of adoption on guideline adherence. The performance feedback increased CDS adoption, but additional strategies are needed to integrate CDS into primary care workflows.

Impact of electronic health record clinical decision support on the management of pediatric obesity.
The investigators assessed the impact of electronic health record-based clinical decision support in improving the diagnosis and management of pediatric obesity. They found a statistically significant increase in the diagnosis of overweight/obesity, scheduling of follow-up appointments, frequency of ordering recommended laboratory investigations, and assessment and counseling for nutrition and physical activity.

Understanding the acceptability of a computer decision support system in pediatric primary care.
In this study, the investigators examine the attitudes and opinions of pediatric users' toward the Child Health Improvement through Computer Automation (CHICA) system, a computer decision support system linked to an electronic health record in four community pediatric clinics. The investigators found that pediatric users appreciated the system's automation and enhancements that allowed relevant and meaningful clinical data to be accessible at point of care.
