Acceptance of artificial intelligence clinical assistant decision support system to prevent and control venous thromboembolism among healthcare workers: an extend Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology Model

Background

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is an important global health problem and the third most prevalent cardiovascular disorder. It has been proven that computerized tools were helpful in the prevention and control of VTE. However, studies that focused on the acceptance of computerized tools for VTE prevention among healthcare workers were limited.

Objective

This study aims to explore what factors are influencing healthcare workers' acceptance of the Artificial Intelligence Clinical Assistant Decision Support System (AI-CDSS) for VTE prevention based on the extended Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT).

Methods

We conducted a cross-sectional survey among healthcare workers in three grade-A tertiary hospitals in Shanxi, China. Statistically, the hypothesized model was evaluated by AMOS structural equation modeling.

Results

510 (72.86%) valid surveys were collected in total. The results showed that performance expectancy (β = 0.45, P < 0.001), effort expectancy (β = 0.21, P < 0.001), and top management support (β = 0.30, P < 0.001) positively influenced healthcare workers' intention. Top management support was an antecedent of performance expectancy (β = 0.41 , P < 0.001), social influence (β = 0.57, P < 0.001), effort expectancy (β = 0.61, P < 0.001), and information quality (β = 0.59, P < 0.001). In addition, Social influence positively influenced performance expectancy (β = 0.52, P < 0.001), and information quality positively influenced system quality (β = 0.65, P < 0.001). Social influence did not influence nurses' behavioral intention (β = 0.06, p = 0.376), but negatively influenced clinicians' behavioral intention in the model (β = -0.19, P < 0.001). System quality positively influenced nurses' behavioral intention; (β = 0.16, P < 0.001), and information quality positively influenced clinicians' behavioral intention (β = 0.15, p = 0.025).

Conclusion

With this model explaining 76.3% variance of the behavioral intention variable, this study could be useful as a reference for hospital administrators to evaluate future developments and facilitate the implementation of AI-CDSS for VTE prevention.

Development an extended-information success system model (ISSM) based on nurses' point of view for hospital EHRs: a combined framework and questionnaire

Background

Understanding the hospital EHR success rate has great benefits for hospitals. The present study aimed to 1-Propose an extended-ISSM framework and a questionnaire in a systematic manner for EHR evaluation based on nurses’ perspectives, 2-Determine the EHR success rate, and 3-Explore the effective factors contributing to EHR success.

Methods

The proposed framework was developed using ISSM, TAM3, TTF, HOT-FIT, and literature review in seven steps. A self-administrated structured 65-items questionnaire was developed with CVI: 90.27% and CVR: 94.34%. Construct validity was conducted using EFA and CFA. Eleven factors were identified, collectively accounting for 71.4% of the total variance. In the EFA step, 15 questions and two questions in EFA were excluded. Finally, 48 items remained in the framework including dimensions of technology, human, organization, ease of use, usefulness, and net benefits. The overall Cronbach’s alpha value was 93.4%. In addition, the hospital EHR success rate was determined and categorized. In addition, effective factors on EHR success were explored.

Results

In total, 86 nurses participated in the study. On average, the “total hospital EHR success rate” was moderate. The total EHR success rates was ranging from 47.09 to 74.96%. The results of the Kruskal–Wallis test showed that there was a significant relationship between “gender” and “self-efficacy” (p-value: 0.042). A reverse relation between “years of experience using computers” and “training” (p-value: 0.012) was observed. “Years of experience using EHR” as well as “education level” (p-value: 0.001) and “ease of use” had a reverse relationship (p-value: 0.034).

Conclusions

Our findings underscore the EHR success based on nurses’ viewpoint in a developing country. Our results provide an instrument for comparison of EHR success rates in various hospitals.
