Article Synopsis
- Clinical decision support systems and telemedicine can enhance surgical care, yet there's a gap in understanding patient perspectives on electronic operating rooms (eOR) for remote monitoring.
- The study aimed to assess patients' attitudes towards eOR monitoring and identify barriers and facilitators to its use.
- Results indicated that participants felt more comfortable with familiar clinicians monitoring their health during surgery compared to unfamiliar ones, emphasizing the importance of trust in patient care.
Background: Despite efforts to improve patient outcomes, major morbidity and mortality remain common after surgery. Health information technologies that provide decision support for clinicians might improve perioperative and postoperative patient care. Evaluating the usability of these technologies and barriers to their implementation can facilitate their acceptance within health systems.
