Nurses' Satisfaction with Adopting a Homegrown Public Tertiary Hospital Electronic Medical Record during the Pandemic.
Article in Acta medica Philippina, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background and Objective: There are mixed reports on nurses' satisfaction with electronic medical records (EMR) in literature, and facilitators and barriers to its adoption were reported frequently. A Philippine public tertiary hospital developed an EMR to facilitate remote access to patient charts outside its COVID-designated areas during the pandemic. This study aims to assess nurses' satisfaction with EMR use in order to improve their user experience. The Delone and McLean Information System (D&M IS) Success Model was used as its framework. This offers a unique perspective to EMR adoption by accounting for the effects of the pandemic. Methods: A descriptive, cross-sectional, quantitatively driven, concurrent mixed-methods design was employed. Nurses from the hospital were recruited for the survey (n=353) and the focus group discussions (n=14). Ethical approval was obtained prior to its conduct. Analysis was done through descriptive statistics, multiple linear regression, and thematic analysis. Data were integrated to appreciate the differences in their experiences from the point of adoption up to their current experiences. Results: Nurses initially faced challenges with the EMR when it was introduced, but improvements and continuous use have led to their current high satisfaction. Despite mandatory use and high usage scores, some daily tasks are still done manually. Use, length of service, number of patients handled, designation, and area of assignment were found to be associated with satisfaction. Thematic analysis highlighted several adoption prerequisites in this setup, including assessment of user competence and experience, and the provision of training, structural necessities, and organizational support. Conclusions: This study found high use and satisfaction scores, aligning with the D&M IS Success Model, despite initial adoption challenges. Recommendations include maintaining high EMR use and improving efficiency, communication, and collaboration. Emphasis was placed on the provisions of better training and continuous feedback gathering.
