Abstract:
Effective, scalable and sustainable strategies to improve quality of care are needed to address the substantial burden of preventable deaths of children under-five in resource-constrained settings. Clinical decision support systems (CDSS), digital tools which generate recommendations for healthcare providers based on patient-specific information, show promise. By strengthening adherence to evidence-based assessment, diagnosis and management and generating high-quality data, CDSS can improve quality care - care that is effective, safe, people-centered, timely, equitable, integrated and efficient. Designing and implementing CDSS that deliver this impact is a complex and iterative process. We advocate for collaboration on developing and evaluating these tools to guide their implementation for maximal impact.
