Use of a computerized decision aid for developmental surveillance and screening: a randomized clinical trial.
A study to determine whether a computerized clinical decision support system is an effective approach to improve standardized developmental surveillance and screening (DSS) within primary care practices found that use of such a system significantly increased the number of children screened at 9, 18, and 30 months of age. It also increased the number of children who ultimately were diagnosed as having a developmental delay.

HIE-i-health information exchange with intelligence.
This article reports on the development and pilot testing of an innovative approach to implement health information exchange with intelligence (HIE-i) in primary care settings. Records of 346 patients were studied in 6 primary care practices. The results suggest that coupling a geographically inclusive set of clinical data with HIE-based clinical decision support for prevention can considerably improve prospective care delivery.

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.
