Exploration of an automated approach for receiving patient feedback after outpatient acute care visits.
The authors' objective was to provide post-visit feedback to physicians on patient outcomes following acute care visits. They found that many patients who do not improve as expected do not take action to further address unresolved problems. They suggested that systematic follow-up/feedback mechanisms can potentially identify and connect such patients to needed care.

An electronic order set for acute myocardial infarction is associated with improved patient outcomes through better adherence to clinical practice guidelines.
The researchers investigated the association between the use of an evidence-based, electronic order set (OS) for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and better adherence to clinical practice guidelines among 5,789 patients hospitalized with AMI. They found that use of the electronic OS is associated with increased adherence to evidence-based therapies and lower 30-day mortality.
