Impact of a clinical decision support system on guideline adherence of surveillance recommendations for colonoscopy after polypectomy.
The goal of this study was to characterize guideline adherence of surveillance recommendations after implementation of an electronic medical record (EMR)-based Colonoscopy Pathology Reporting and Clinical Decision Support System (CoRS). Results showed that an EMR-based CoRS was widely used and significantly improved guideline adherence of surveillance recommendations.

Improving performance on preventive health quality measures using clinical decision support to capture care done elsewhere and patient exceptions.
This before-after study was conducted to examine the ability of clinical decision support (CDS) to improve performance on preventive quality measures, capture clinician-reported services completed elsewhere, and patient/medical exceptions and to describe their impact on quality measurement.

Improving the accuracy of a clinical decision support system for cervical cancer screening and surveillance.
Researchers sought to enhance a clinical decision support system (CDSS) by improving its accuracy and incorporating changes to reflect the latest revision of the guidelines. The recommendation accuracy of the enhanced CDSS improved to 93 percent, which is a substantial improvement over the 84 percent reported previously. A detailed analysis of errors is presented in this article.
