Methods of Documentation VII: EMR

Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) primarily center around electronically documenting patients' health information within a single healthcare organization or practice. They contain essential clinical data related to a patient's medical history, diagnoses, medications, treatment plans, lab results, and other pertinent information relevant to the specific encounter or episode of care. EMRs are designed to streamline documentation and workflow processes within individual healthcare settings,...

Charting by Exception, or CBE, is a method of documentation used in healthcare, particularly in nursing, that focuses on documenting only significant or abnormal findings rather than recording every detail. This approach aims to streamline the documentation process, improve efficiency, and ensure that healthcare providers can quickly identify deviations from normalcy in patient assessments.
In CBE, healthcare professionals establish predefined standards of practice that define what constitutes...

Area of Science:

Healthcare Management
Information Science
Evidence-Based Practice

Background:

Evidence-based management (EBMa) applies evidence-based medicine principles to management decisions.
Existing literature offers generic guidance on EBMa but lacks specific search strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

To provide a specific pathway for conducting EBMa database searches for physician practice and health system managers.
To offer practical guidance and examples for effective EBMa information acquisition.

Main Methods:

Detailed description of EBMa search strategies using Google Scholar, PubMed, and other databases.
Inclusion of a practical example for a practice-based management problem.
Discussion of challenges and suggestions for improving search quality.

Main Results:

A clear, actionable pathway for EBMa database searches is presented.
Strategies for overcoming challenges like limited access to subscription databases are offered.
Emphasis on establishing a culture of inquiry and rapid cycle improvement for organizational EBMa support.

Conclusions:

Implementing a structured EBMa search pathway can enhance management decision-making in healthcare.
Addressing search challenges and fostering an inquiry-driven culture are crucial for successful EBMa adoption.
Health systems should prioritize resources for information acquisition to support EBMa.
