Designing Acceptable Patient Care Information Systems

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Computers in Health Care ((HI))

Abstract

The state of the art of patient care information systems has been constantly advancing over the last 20 years. New database tools, faster computers, graphical interfaces, and automated instruments promise impressive benefits to patient care and practice management. To the physician or nurse evaluating a patient care information system, however, there is only one critical question, “Can I do my work more easily and effectively than I could before?” No system can bring about its promised benefits if it is not accepted and used.
