ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY

Introduction

Electronic Health Records, also known as EHR’s and formally known as electronic

medical records, are digital versions of patient charts. They allow for real time charting, are

accessible from anywhere, and provide access to evidence-based tools and software that can aid

in clinical decision making. I selected this technology topic because it is something so widely

charts. It is of interest to me because I use EHR’s every day. I find that I rely heavily on them

patient safety. To find my sources, I used the databases CINAHL, PubMed, and Google Scholar.

I used a combination of the search terms “Electronic Health Records, patient care, advantages,

and patient safety”. I also filtered results to show peer-reviewed sources published between 2015

and 2020.
