Clinicians in Canada and other jurisdictions have identified weaknesses in patient data that distracts from their time and effort to provide healthcare. Weaknesses include poor navigation paths, no consolidation of patient data from multiple sources, poor presentation of pertinent patient data required for diagnosis, and frustration with duplicate information. Addressing these issues is crucial to improving the healthcare provided to patients and alleviating clinician stress and anxiety, which is already crippling the profession. For clinicians to process all relevant information on patients, cognitive tools are essential for the rapid comprehension of vast and increasing amounts of patient data.
