Objective: To assess novel dynamic reaction picklists for improving allergy reaction documentation compared to a static reaction picklist.

Materials And Methods: We developed three web-based user interfaces (UIs) mimicking the Mass General Brigham's EHR allergy module: the first and second UIs (i.e.

Identifying and Reconciling Patients' Allergy Information Within the Electronic Health Record.

In this retrospective cohort study, we examined the prevalence of incompleteness, inaccuracy, and redundancy of allergy information for patients with a clinical encounter at any Mass General Brigham facility between January 1, 2018 and December 31, 2018.
