Patient-Generated Collections for Organizing Electronic Health Record Data to Elevate Personal Meaning, Improve Actionability, and Support Patient–Health Care Provider Communication: Think-Aloud Evaluation Study

Therefore, addressing the challenges around sensemaking and the usability of health data will be important to advancing patient-centered care and empowering patients to take an active role in their health journey.

Alerts and Collections for Automating Patients’ Sensemaking and Organizing of Their Electronic Health Record Data for Reflection, Planning, and Clinical Visits: Qualitative Research-Through-Design Study

Alerts and Collections for Automating Patients’ Sensemaking and Organizing of Their Electronic Health Record Data for Reflection, Planning, and Clinical Visits: Qualitative Research-Through-Design Study

We hope that a new model of interacting with the EHR data could provide a different perspective to the patients and, thus, open the gates for more efficient and significant improvements in supporting the sensemaking of their EHR data. To achieve this, we relied on established sensemaking theories, fundamental sensemaking activities, and principles for the collaborative determination of diagnosis and treatment.

New Ways for Patients to Make Sense of Their Electronic Health Record Data Using the Discovery Web Application: Think-Aloud Evaluation Study

To evaluate the extent to which Discovery is able to meet the patients’ needs and learn more about how to support sensemaking of EHR data from multiple providers, we asked the following research questions (RQs): How well is Discovery supporting the sensemaking of EHR data: Is the application helpful for patients to make sense of their medical records from multiple providers?

Web-Based Co-design in Health Care: Considerations for Renewed Participation

Web-Based Co-design in Health Care: Considerations for Renewed Participation

During in-person co-design, materials and interactions affect sensemaking. When co-design is conducted through web, the technical aspects of the experience play a role in the sensemaking process. Technical sensemaking refers to participants’ interactions with technology that could be challenging, such as how to use technology or how to handle technological failures (eg, video freezing or audio cutting out).

A Novel Theory-Based Virtual Reality Training to Improve Patient Safety Culture in the Department of Surgery of a Large Academic Medical Center: Protocol for a Mixed Methods Study

An evolving concept in the area of quality and safety is sensemaking, which is an action taken in response to an individual’s interpretation of ambiguous events. Sensemaking is essential to achieve commitment to HRO-like thinking and behaviors [7]. Sensemaking has been shown to improve patient safety by improving health care workers’ (HCWs’) commitment to a culture of patient safety and the reliability of an organization [7].
