The clinician in the driver's seat: part 2 - intelligent uses of space in a drag/drop user-composable electronic health record.

ABSTRACT: User-composable approaches provide clinicians with the control to design and assemble information elements on screen via drag/drop. They hold considerable promise for enhancing the electronic-health-records (EHRs) user experience. We previously described this novel approach to EHR design and our illustrative system, MedWISE.
