Brief Summary

The goal of the Clinical Decision Support (CDS) Consortium research study is to assess, define, demonstrate, and evaluate best practices for knowledge management (KM) and CDS in healthcare information technology across multiple ambulatory care settings and electronic health records (EHR) technology platforms. There are seven specific research objectives focusing on two practical areas of implementation for clinical decision support services: a) healthcare maintenance and preventive care screening, and b) two chronic disease conditions: Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), and Adult-onset Diabetes Mellitus (AODM). The research objectives are: 1) Knowledge management lifecycle, 2) Knowledge specification, 3) Knowledge portal and repository, 4) CDS knowledge content and public web services, 5) CDS Dashboard, 6)Evaluation, and 7) Dissemination.
