Research Findings: Frequent Interruptions Distract Clinicians from Patient Care, Contribute to Stress and Burnout

Frequent interruptions distract doctors and nurses from patient care, contributing to stress and burnout. How big is the problem? How can IT and clinical leaders monitor, measure, and manage interruptions? How much do interruptions that disrupt patient care contribute to clinician stress and burnout? This HIMSS Analytics report explores how clinical and IT leaders view these challenges, and how they can solve them efficiently and effectively.

Read the HIMSS Analytics report to learn:

• How clinical and IT leaders view the challenge of interruptions and how they are working to address it
• How to more efficiently identify and reduce the interruptions that contribute to clinician stress and burnout
• How to optimize clinical communication workflows and be better positioned to achieve clinical imperatives for improving patient care
• Why viewing multiple vendors’ usage reports in isolation and manually compiling data to decipher trends is not enough
