With the marked increases in electronic health record (EHR) use for providing clinical care, there have been parallel efforts to leverage EHR data for research. EHR repositories offer the promise of vast amounts of clinical data not easily captured with traditional research methods and facilitate clinical epidemiology and comparative effectiveness research, including analyses to identify patients at higher risk for complications or who are better candidates for treatment. These types of studies have been relatively slow to penetrate the field of infectious diseases, but the need for rapid turnaround during the COVID-19 global pandemic has accelerated the uptake. This review discusses the rationale for her network projects, opportunities and challenges that such networks present, and some prior studies within the field of infectious diseases.
随着电子健康记录 (EHR) 在提供临床护理方面的使用显著增加,人们也在努力利用 EHR 数据进行研究。EHR 存储库提供了大量临床数据的承诺,这些数据很难通过传统的研究方法来获取,并促进了临床流行病学和比较效果研究,包括分析以确定并发症风险较高或更适合治疗的患者。这类研究在传染病领域相对进展缓慢,但在 COVID-19 全球大流行期间需要快速的结果,这加速了它们的应用。这篇综述讨论了她的网络项目的基本原理、这些网络带来的机会和挑战,以及传染病领域的一些先前研究。
