This study merges the distinct needs of nurses and physicians to maintain their collaborative relationship within the electronic healthcare record system. Optimizing the electronic health record (EHR) supports crucial clinician interactions.

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Clinical Workflow Analysis
  • Human-Computer Interaction

Background:

  • The electronic healthcare record (EHR) is central to modern healthcare delivery.
  • Maintaining effective communication and collaboration between nurses and physicians is vital for patient care.
  • Current EHR systems may not adequately support the nuanced processes of interprofessional relationships.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify and integrate the specific requirements of both nursing and physician workflows within the EHR.
  • To propose strategies for preserving and enhancing the nurse-physician relationship in the digital environment.
  • To ensure the EHR facilitates, rather than hinders, effective clinical collaboration.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative analysis of user needs assessments from nursing and physician groups.

  • Usability testing with representative clinical end-users.

    • Main Results:

    • Identified distinct but overlapping needs for information sharing and task management between nurses and physicians.
    • Developed a conceptual model for an integrated EHR interface that supports collaborative care processes.
    • Demonstrated potential for improved communication efficiency and reduced workflow friction.

    Conclusions:

    • Merging nurse and physician needs into EHR design is essential for preserving their relationship.
    • A user-centered, integrated EHR approach can enhance interprofessional collaboration and patient care.
    • Future EHR development should prioritize the dynamic processes of clinical teamwork.
