Clinical Decision Support Systems for Pressure Ulcer Management: Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The clinical decision-making process in pressure ulcer management is complex, and its quality depends on both the nurse's experience and the availability of scientific knowledge. This process should follow evidence-based practices incorporating health information technologies to assist health care professionals, such as the use of clinical decision support systems. These systems, in addition to increasing the quality of care provided, can reduce errors and costs in health care. However, the widespread use of clinical decision support systems still has limited evidence, indicating the need to identify and evaluate its effects on nursing clinical practice.

Objective

The goal of the review was to identify the effects of nurses using clinical decision support systems
