Librarian Infobutton Tailoring Environment

描述(由申请人提供)： 信息按钮是放置在临床信息系统中的特定于上下文的链接，可从在线卫生资源检索特定于上下文的信息。信息按钮管理器是将上下文信息与潜在信息需求相匹配的系统，并为用户提供指向相关资源的链接选择。现有几个InfoButton管理器，为各种机构提供服务，并且正在开发用于InfoButton管理器的HL7标准。当前的InfoButton管理器由系统人员维护和定制。拟议项目的目标是增加信息按钮管理器的使用。我们建议开发一个图书馆员信息按钮定制环境(LITE)，使机构图书馆员能够运用他们的专业知识，向信息按钮管理员具体说明其用户的信息需求，确定满足这些需求的适当在线资源，并构建适当的查询以检索答案。我们设想每个机构都会向某人收取建立、维护和监控提供给其临床信息系统用户的问题和资源的责任。我们的具体目标是： 1.对机构图书馆员所需的信息按钮管理职能进行社区评估 2.完善LITE的规划功能(如上所述)，以满足机构图书馆员的需求 3.建立一个论坛，收集机构图书馆员的反馈意见 4.根据机构图书馆员的反馈，以迭代的方式开发Lite 5.为培训机构图书馆员使用LITE编写用户手册和教程 6.由训练有素的机构图书馆员评估LITE的可用性 7.评估将IM集成到其临床信息系统中的机构使用LITE的情况 8.宣传项目成果 9.推广IM和Lite的使用 其结果将是一种资源，将帮助卫生保健机构解决未解决的临床医生信息需求问题。我们利用现有的信息技术基础设施，使信息学专业人员能够利用它来翻译和传播研究信息。我们寻求创建和提供一个更有用的工具，以促进我们的机构和其他机构使用IM。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Infobuttons are context specific links, placed in clinical information systems, which retrieve context-specific information from on-line health resources. Infobutton Managers are systems that match context information to potential information needs and provide users with a selection of links to relevant resources. Several Infobutton Managers exist, serving a variety of institutions, and an HL7 standard for Infobutton Managers is in development. Current Infobutton Managers are maintained and tailored by systems personnel. The goal of the proposed project is to increase the use of the Infobutton Manager. We propose to develop a Librarian Infobutton Tailoring Environment (LITE) that will allow institutional librarians to apply their expertise to specify to the Infobutton Manager the information needs of their users, determine appropriate on-line resources to address those needs, and construct appropriate queries for retrieving answers. We envision each institution charging someone with the responsibility for establishing, maintaining, and monitoring the questions and resources provided to the users of their clinical information systems. Our specific aims are to: 1. Conduct a community assessment of the infobutton management functions needed by institution librarians 2. Refine the planned features of LITE (as envisioned above) to address needs of institution librarians 3. Establish a forum for collecting feedback from institution librarians as LITE is developed 4. Develop LITE in an iterative manner, based on feedback from institution librarians 5. Develop a user manual and tutorial for training institution librarians in the use of LITE 6. Evaluate the usability of LITE by trained institution librarians 7. Evaluate the use of LITE at institutions that integrate the IM into their clinical information systems 8. Disseminate the results of the project 9. Promote the use of the IM and LITE The result will be a resource that will help health care institutions address the problem of unresolved clinician information needs. We exploit existing information technology infrastructure to empower informatics professionals to leverage it for translating and disseminating research information. We seek to create and make available a more usable tool that will facilitate use of the IM by ours and other institutions.
