TL;DR: The HIS-EVAL workshop was intended to be the starting point for setting up a network of European scientists working on evaluation of health information systems, to obtain synergy effects by combining the research traditions from different evaluation fields, leading to a new dimension and collaboration on further research on information systems' evaluation.

TL;DR: A comprehensive list of principles relevant for properly describing Health Informatics evaluations has been developed and it is believed that better publication of both quantitative and qualitative evaluation studies is an important step toward the vision of evidence-based Health In formatics.

TL;DR: A Delphi study on success and failure aspects of Health ICT applications from a group of medical informaticians found that "collaboration and co-operation" and "setting goals and courses" are "essential for the success" of clinical systems, and "user acceptance" for educational systems.

TL;DR: This paper presents a meta-assessment framework for Meta-Assessment of Assessment Studies, designed to assist in the selection of methods for evaluation and the identification of perils and Pitfalls at Assessment.

TL;DR: Application of this guideline will support better handling of an evaluation study, potentially leading to a higher quality of evaluation studies, and is an important step towards building stronger evidence and thus to progress towards evidence-based health informatics.
