We previously reported on the development of CA-CDS in Epic and Allscripts. The objective of this study was to implement CA-CDS into Epic and Allscripts and determine its effects on identification, evaluation, and reporting of suspected child maltreatment.<h4>Materials and methods</h4>After a preimplementation period, CA-CDS was implemented at University of Wisconsin (Epic) and Northwell Health (Allscripts). Providers were surveyed before the go-live and 4 months later. Outcomes included the proportion of children who triggered the CA-CDS system, had a positive Child Abuse Screen (CAS) and/or were reported to Child ProtectJAMIA openooad022https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC10101685biostudies-literatureDisseminating child abuse clinical decision support among commercial electronic health records: Effects on clinical practice.PMC10101685Kaplan DBerger RPBullaro FKuehnel NRoss JFeldstein DAMcGinn TBarata IHeineman EKhan SfalseDisseminating child abuse clinical decision support among commercial electronic health records: Effects on clinical practice.<h4>Objectives</h4>The use of electronic health record (EHR)-embedded child abuse clinical decision support (CA-CDS) may help decrease morbidity from child maltreatment.
