The Priorities of End Users of Emergency Department Electronic Health Records: Modified Delphi Study.
Article in JMIR human factors, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundThe needs of the emergency department (ED) pose unique challenges to modern electronic health record (EHR) systems. A diverse case load of high-acuity, high-complexity presentations, and ambulatory patients, all requiring multiple transitions of care, creates a rich environment through which to critically examine EHRs.
objectiveThis investigation aims to capture and analyze the perspective of end users of EHR about the strengths, limitations, and future priorities for EHR in the setting of the ED.
methodsIn the first phase of this investigation, a literature search was conducted to identify 5 key usage categories of ED EHRs. Using key usage categories in the first phase, a modified Delphi study was conducted with a group of 12 panelists with expertise in both emergency medicine and health informatics. Across 3 rounds of surveys, panelists generated and refined a list of strengths, limitations, and key priorities.
resultsThe findings from this investigation highlighted the preference of panelists for features maximizing functionality of basic clinical features relative to features of disruptive innovation.
conclusionsBy capturing the perspectives of end users in the ED, this investigation highlights areas for the improvement or development of future EHRs in acute care settings.
