SylViA, the Syllabus Viewing Application, has been developed to alleviate the lack of standardization and occasional poor usability of SIMS syllabi.
The study results confirmed the mismatch between what PSS provide and what planners expect, as well as indicated a poor usability of PSS.
Poor usability of clinical information systems delays their adoption by clinicians and limits potential improvements to the efficiency and safety of care.
Poor usability of health technology is thought to diminish work system performance, increase error rates and, potentially, harm patients.
A critical reason for slow adoption is the poor usability of clinical systems, which makes it difficult for providers to navigate through the information and obtain an integrated view of patient data.
Querying provenance at such low level leads to poor usability of the system: a user needs to know the underlying schema to formulate queries; if the schema changes, queries need to be reformulated; and queries formulated for one system will not run in another system.
While this may reflect the poor usability of some EMR products, nearly 1 in 5 US physicians employs a medical scribe who joins the doctor and patient in the examination room to enter data into an EMR system (Gillespie 2015; Gellert et al. 2015).
The failure to write an appropriate instruction may reflect the GP's lack of knowledge of the consequences of their action, lack of knowledge of how to enter a quick prescribing code, poor usability of the software system, or a combination of all three.
More recently, Price et al.'s [ 8] qualitative analysis showed there are "ceiling effects" to EMR use in primary care practices owing to numerous factors, including a lack of awareness or availability of EMR functionalities to support clinical work as well as the poor usability of these systems.
Poor usability and/or reliability of ICT systems and devices was a noted problem in several of the included studies, as was poor technical quality of the devices used.
