Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of an inpatient personal health record (PHR) portal intervention within the hospital environment. The intervention hopes to improve patient engagement with their care and to measure patient activation and satisfaction. Additional clinical measure (e.g. number of adverse events that occur during the stay, changes to medication orders, etc.) will also be studied. Characterization of hospital patient and clinician attitudes towards patient engagement will also be formalized.
