Abstract

MN-CMS records 40% of Ireland’s births and within the neonatal chart, the Neonate Summary page was upgraded and redesigned to optimise the software and the clinical information available to users. The design of the new summary page was based on the workflow concept 5 of review (charts opened, review times), communicate (orders, problems, diagnoses, procedures entry) and record (documentation). This study evaluates the upgrade and redesign of a neonate summary page by quantitatively measuring workflow compliance of neonatal EHR users (NICU Nurses and NICU NCHDs) in one tertiary neonatal unit. End users were provided with a training video on the use of the new page prior to implementation.
