Overview

An inpatient safety dashboard for opioid management improved clinician efficiency (as measured by mouse clicks, task time, etc.) without compromising information retrieval or negatively impacting clinician cognition.

Status/Stage of Development

Pilot

Funding Sources

Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services

Measurement

Clinician efficiency (tasks/mouse clicks/mouse movement), cognitive load (NASA Raw Task Load Index), task accuracy

Results

Significant reductions in time on task, mouse clicks, and mouse movement (all p < 0.001), without significant increase in cognitive load or task inaccuracy.
