Description
Summary:Highlights • In 2004 we developed a pediatric computer based clinical decision support system, CHICA, using Arden Syntax medical logic modules (MLM). • CHICA has run continuously for 10 years and has been used by 755 physicians, residents, fellows, nurse practitioners, nurses and clinical staff. • There are 429 MLMs implemented in CHICA using the Arden Syntax standard. • CHICA has served over 44,000 patients at 7 pediatric clinics in our healthcare system in the last decade and its MLMs have been fired 6182,700 times to produce and 5334,021 times to read patient documents.
