Successful integration of an automated patient-reported outcome measure within a hospital electronic patient record.
Article in Rheumatology advances in practice, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Objectives: The objective of this evaluation was to assess the feasibility of implementing a fully integrated, automated, electronic patient-reported outcome measures (ePROM) system into a hospital electronic patient record (EPR; hospital-based clinical record). Additional objectives included evaluating the effect of the system on patient-reported outcome measures (PROM) completion rates and investigating the acceptability of the ePROM. Methods: The evaluation was conducted in a rheumatology clinic in a specialist children's hospital in the UK. Paper-based childhood HAQ PROMs were already used in the clinic, and an EPR was the main hospital information system. The technical feasibility of introducing the ePROM technology was assessed using a case study approach; the effect of the system on PROM completion rates was investigated using a before-after design; and acceptability was assessed using semi-structured questionnaires and a focus group. Results: An automated and integrated ePROM system was implemented successfully in April 2021. After implementation, ∼500 automated SMS text messaging invitations to complete ePROMs were sent to care-givers each month. PROM completion rates increased from 33 of 100 (33%) to 47 of 65 (72%) after the introduction of the ePROM system (χ Conclusion: High levels of automation and integration with existing technology systems seemed to be key contextual factors associated with the successful implementation and adoption of the ePROM intervention in a paediatric rheumatology clinic.
