项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objective of the proposed research is to provide an evidence-base to better inform user centered design and implementation processes to improve health information technology (health IT) usability and safety. The proposed research is in direct response to special emphasis notice (NOT-HS-15-005). Utilizing a hybrid approach of expert manual review and machine learning techniques, specifically natural language processing, we will develop methods to rapidly analyze patient safety event data to determine which events are health IT related. We will then further categorize the health IT related safety events to determine which events could have been prevented by effective usability or implementation processes. Through this analysis we will be able to specify the usability and implementation processes that are critical to the safe and effective use of health IT. This project utilizes the extensive expertise of the research team in human factors and safety science, health IT, and computer science. The proposed research is based on unique insights that our team gleaned from previous research that we conducted focusing on health IT vendor design and implementation processes. The application addresses fundamental aspects of the call for applications by providing an evidence base to improve health IT usability and safety to better inform policy and practice. This research effort is being conducted in partnership with a health IT vendor and a patient safety organization to ensure that our results align with vendor needs and to ensure the results are generalizable. Contributions from this research will include a fundamental understanding of the critical user centered design and implementation processes to inform vendor and provider practice. Our research will also provide organizations like the Office of the National Coordinator with the information to better inform health IT policy.

描述（由适用提供）：拟议的研究的目的是提供一个证据基础，以更好地为以用户为中心的设计和实施流程，以改善健康信息技术（健康IT）的可用性和安全性。拟议的研究直接回应特别重点通知（NOT-HS-15-005）。利用专家手册审查和机器学习技术的混合方法，特别是自然语言处理，我们将开发方法来快速分析患者安全事件数据，以确定哪些事件与健康相关。然后，我们将进一步对与健康相关的安全事件进行分类，以确定有效的可用性或实施过程可以预防哪些事件。通过此分析，我们将能够指定对安全有效使用健康IT至关重要的可用性和实施过程。这个项目利用人为因素和安全科学，健康IT和计算机科学领域的研究团队的广泛专业知识。拟议的研究是基于我们团队从以前的研究中收集的独特见解，而我们进行了专注于健康的IT供应商设计和实施过程。该申请通过提供证据基础来改善健康的可用性和安全性，以更好地为政策和实践提供信息，从而解决了申请申请的基本方面。这项研究工作正在与健康合作进行供应商和患者安全组织，以确保我们的结果与供应商的需求保持一致，并确保结果可以推广。这项研究的贡献将包括对关键用户以用户为中心的设计和实施过程的基本理解，以告知供应商和提供商实践。我们的研究还将为像国家协调员办公室这样的组织提供信息，以更好地为健康IT政策提供信息。
