Technical desiderata for the integration of genomic data with clinical decision support.
The objective of this study is to develop and validate a guiding set of technical desiderata for supporting the clinical use of the whole genome sequence (WGS) through clinical decision support (CDS). A panel of domain experts in genomics and CDS developed a proposed set of seven additional requirements. These additional desiderata provide important guiding principles for the technical development of CDS capabilities for the clinical use of WGS information.

Usability and impact of a computerized clinical decision support intervention designed to reduce urinary catheter utilization and catheter-associated urinary tract infections.
The researchers evaluated the usability and effectiveness of a computerized clinical decision support (CDS) intervention aimed at reducing the duration of urinary tract catheterizations. They found that usability improved to 15% with the revised reminder. The catheter utilization ratio declined over the 3 time periods, as did CAUTIs per 1,000 patient-days. They concluded that the usability of the reminder was highly dependent on its user interface, with a homegrown version of the reminder resulting in higher impact than a stock reminder.

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.
