Many organizations created COVID-19 dashboards to communicate epidemiologic statistics or community health capabilities with the public. In this paper we used dashboard heuristics to identify common violations observed in COVID-19 dashboards targeted to citizens. Many of the faults we identified likely stem from failing to include users in the design of these dashboards. We urge health information dashboard designers to implement design principles and test dashboards with representative users to ensure that their tools are satisfying user needs.
Background: The objectives of this article are: 1. To synthesize peer-reviewed evidence on the outcomes of team-based primary and community care (TBPCC) in Canada on Patient and Provider Experience, Population Health, and Health Care Costs (Quadruple Aim); 2. To introduce the TBPCC Evaluation Framework; and 3. To extend the critical interpretive synthesis to include the additional four domains from the TBPCC Evaluation Framework (i.e., Relationship Centred Care, Care Process and Quality, Team Function and TBC Foundations). Methods: We conducted a review of the following databases: Medline (OVID and PubMed), CINAHL, Embase, SportDiscus, and PsycINFO as well as an advanced search with Google Scholar (Title only) with the words “Canada AND primary AND team”. Review concepts included: population (patients), intervention (team-based primary health care), comparator (usual care, single practitioner delivery mode), outcome (patient and provider experience, population health, and health care costs), time (2000-present), and type (randomized controlled trials, controlled trials, quasi-experimental designs, and implementation studies/evaluations). We excluded reviews, opinion papers, laboratory-based studies, and studies based outside of Canada. Results: Forty-five publications met our inclusion criteria with the majority of these (34) from Central Canada. Results were initially mapped to the domains of the Quadruple Aim, with 51% (23/45) aligning. The additional domains from the TBPCC Evaluation Framework (Team Function, Relationship Centred Care, Care Process and Quality and Team-Based Care Foundations) and the Team-Based Care (TBC) Adoption Model were integrated into the synthesis. 100% of the included articles reported outcomes that aligned with the TBPCC Evaluation Framework. Conclusion: Across Canada, the value of relationships, shared understanding, communication, and coordination across teams are highlighted as is the potential of TBC to result in improvements in patient and provider experience, team function, and the quality of care. By encouraging a focus on formative as well as summative evaluation, the TBPCC Evaluation Framework provides a comprehensive approach to assessing the evidence needed to support actionable improvements for TBPCC in Canada. Trial Registration: To identify peer-reviewed literature, we followed standard review methodology and reporting guidelines as established by PRISMA. We registered our review on PROSPERO (2018 CRD42018091086).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
