Hayley Evans: What If The Decision Support System Is Part of The Problem?
Hayley Evans, Deputy Director at the NIHR Blood and Transplant Research Unit in Data Driven Transfusion Practice, shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article she and her colleagues co-authored, adding:
”Decision support is increasingly assumed to be the answer to improving clinical care.
But what if it’s part of the problem?
In our new study (British Journal of Haematology), clinicians described being overwhelmed by electronic prompts leading to alert fatigue, workflow disruption and the potential for important messages to be ignored.
When everything is flagged as important, nothing is.
Better decision support isn’t about more prompts.
It’s about fewer, smarter ones that actually fit clinical practice.”
