Exposure investigations are labor intensive and vulnerable to recall bias. We developed an algorithm to identify healthcare personnel (HCP) interactions from the electronic health record (EHR), and we evaluated its accuracy against conventional exposure investigations. The EHR algorithm identified every known transmission and used ranking to produce a manageable contact list.
暴露调查工作繁琐,容易受到回忆偏倚的影响。我们开发了一种从电子健康记录(EHR)中识别医疗保健人员(HCP)交互的算法,并针对传统暴露调查对其准确性进行了评估。EHR 算法识别出了每一个已知的传播途径,并通过排序生成了一个易于管理的接触者名单。
