The integration of electronic health records (EHRs) has shown promise in improving health-care quality. In the United Arab Emirates, EHRs have been recently adopted to improve the quality and safety of patient care. A cross-sectional survey of 680 health-care providers (HCPs) was conducted to assess the satisfaction of HCPs in the United Arab Emirates with EHRs' impact on access/viewing, documentation and medication administration and to explore the barriers encountered in their use. Data were collected over 6 months from April to September 2014. High overall satisfaction with EHRs was reported by HCPs, suggesting their acceptance. Physicians reported the greatest overall satisfaction with EHRs, although nurses showed significantly higher satisfaction with the impact on medication administration compared with other HCPs. The most significant barriers reported by nurses were lack of belief in the value of EHRs for patients and lack of adequate computer skills. Given the large investment in technology, additional research is necessary to promote the full utilization of EHRs. Nurses need to be aware of the value of EHRs for patient care and be involved in all stages of EHR implementations to maximize its meaningful use for better clinical outcomes.

“…The first category, EHR usability barriers and facilitators, is comprised of how easy the technology is to use, its functionality, ease of navigation and its impact on workload (Ammenwerth, Ehlers, Hirsch, & Gratl, ; Carayon et al., ; Carrington & Effken, ; Lu, Hsiao, & Chen, ; Maillet, Mathieu, & Sicotte, ; Saleem et al., ; Schenk et al., ; Whittaker, Aufdenkamp, & Tinley, ; Yontz, Zinn, & Schumacher, ). The second category, organizational context, includes: support from leadership, level of training, level of ongoing support and the physical environment (Lu et al., ; Maillet et al., ; Saleem et al., ; Whittaker et al., ; Yontz et al., ). The individual nurse characteristic category includes: sex, age, nursing unit, years of experience as a nurse, country of nursing education, years of experience using an EHR, previous experience using an EHR and formal informatics training (Ifinedo, ; Yontz et al., ).…”

AimThe overall aim of this study is to examine nurses’ perceptions of electronic health record use in an acute care hospital setting.DesignThis study uses a sequential mixed methods design in two phases.MethodsPhase one consists of a survey of Registered Nurses to understand nurses’ perceptions of electronic health record use. Phase two is comprised of focus groups of a subsample from phase one. Data collection occurred from November 2015 ‐ August 2016 and was done in Toronto, Canada.ResultsIn phase one, navigation was found to be a predictor of nurses’ perceptions of electronic health record use. In phase two, participants discussed the following five topics: (1) navigation; (2) functionality; (3) organizational standards; (4) documentation workload and (5) issues of system performance and response time. This study has implications for organizations implementing electronic health records, nursing leaders and electronic health record vendors.
