| Abstract: |
The opportunity exists to improve patient care by physicians through various complex digital reminder and informational systems. However, these systems seem to exhibit limited quantifiable results, possibly due to an integration of email and multiple other styles of reminders. The objective of this review is to evaluate how delivery of reminders may impact process and outcomes to clinicians at the point of care. Twenty-eight studies were included in this review. Shojania et al. found that point of care reminders typically resulted in small to modest improvements in provider behavior. |
