TL;DR: A tracking mechanism for monitoring trigger and adoption rates of a complex CDS tool based on the Wells criteria for pulmonary embolism and Adaptive modifications based on user feedback may increase targeted CDS with lower trigger rates, reducing alert fatigue and increasing provider adoption.

TL;DR: Several factors to consider when designing CDS tools are highlighted, including formative assessment of EHR functionality and clinical environment workflow, focus groups and key informative interviews to incorporate providers’ perceptions of CDS and workflow integration and/or the demonstration of proposed workflows through wireframes to help providers visualise design concepts.
