| PC CDS Implementation | Patient-Centered Clinical Decision Support-Where Are We and Where to Next? | https://ebooks.iospress.nl/doi/10.3233/SHTI231004 | This article published in Studies in Health Technology and Informatics focuses on four factors of patient-centered clinical decision support (PC CDS): knowledge, data, delivery, and use. Through a literature review and key informant interviews, the paper explores the current state of each factor and how each factor promotes patient-centeredness in healthcare. The authors found a need for more research on how to incorporate patient input into the guideline selection and prioritization for PC CDS, development and implementation of PC CDS tools, technical challenges for capturing patient contributed data, and optimizing PC CDS across various settings to meet patient and caregiver needs.

| Pilot Projects | Visualization of Patient-Generated Health Data: A Scoping Review of Dashboard Designs | https://www.thieme-connect.com/products/ejournals/abstract/10.1055/a-2174-7820 | From the AHRQ CDSiC Innovation Center, this article published in Applied Clinical Informatics (ACI) shares findings from a scoping review of studies of patient-generated health data (PGHD) dashboards that involved clinician users in design or evaluations. The objective of the research was to identify best practices in visualizations of physiologic PGHD to design a software application as a patient-centered clinical decision support (PC CDS) tool. The authors found themes around PGHD dashboard user preference in terms of presentation and use and concluded that more information is needed as PGHD usage grows.
