Understanding how primary care clinicians make sense of chronic pain.
This research explored how primary care clinicians manage their patients with chronic noncancer pain. They conducted Critical Decision Method interviews with 10 clinicians about 30 individual patients. Findings suggested that clinicians should focus on supporting sensemaking in the content of clinical evidence rather than trying to provide them with rules.

Physician intervention to positive depression screens among adolescents in primary care.
The objective of this study was to determine the effectiveness of computer-based screening and physician feedback to guide adolescent depression management within primary care. The investigators found that when a computer-based decision support system algorithm focused on adolescent depression and was implemented in two primary care clinics, a majority of physicians utilized screening results to guide clinical care.
