这项研究考察了在创伤复苏期间为捕获患者和处理信息而开发的电子流程图的使用-这是一种治疗严重受伤患者的高风险、快节奏的过程。与大多数医院单位的医疗记录不同,复苏记录需要实时完成,因为信息的短暂性质及其同时用于患者护理。我们利用对15个复苏事件的现场观察来了解抄写员如何在这样的环境中与系统互动。我们的结果显示频繁的选项卡切换和界面导航问题,导致数据捕获延迟。我们将这些低效率归因于目前电子流程图的布局,其中信息分组遵循逻辑结构,而不是上下文驱动的结构。最后,我们讨论了未来系统的设计机会,以在快节奏、时间紧迫的医疗环境中改进文档和团队合作过程。
This study examines the use of an electronic flowsheet developed for capturing patient and process information during trauma resuscitation—a high-risk, fast-paced process of treating severely injured patients. Unlike medical records in most hospital units, the resuscitation record necessitates real-time completion because of the ephemeral nature of information and its contemporaneous use for patient care. We draw on in situ observations of 15 resuscitation events to understand how scribes interact with the system in such an environment. Our results showed frequent tab switching and problems navigating the interface, resulting in delayed data capture. We attribute these inefficiencies to the current layout of the electronic flowsheet, where information grouping follows logical rather than context-driven structure. We conclude by discussing design opportunities for future systems to improve both documentation and teamwork processes in fast-paced, time-critical medical settings.
