Summary

The case history of patients with complex and long-term needs is often stored in fragments across many different care providers, each with a separate electronic health record. Even when the notes are stored in the same organization, the large volume of information makes it difficult for practitioners to grasp the full overview of the patient's situation.

The DigiTeam tool, combines information management features to present notes from across the care pathway from the three main providers: General Practice, Health and Social care Services, and Secondary care. It also includes summaries of the patient's concerns, conditions, and treatment plan. It provides links to the source documents that are the basis for the summaries.

The overarching aim is to examine the effect of physicians' use of the DigiTeam for three patient cases derived from real-world pseudonymized notes, on the quality of the physcians' ensuing case summary and treatment plan. In the comparator arms, physicians use usual care tools, i.e. only one or three sources of notes and no information management features.
