The Role of Health Informatics Research: A Case of a Large-Scale Implementation in Norway

Abstract

Many see the role of health informatics research as informing the development and implementation of information technology in clinical practice. The aim of this study is to see if this role is realized in the ongoing implementation of a large-scale health information system in central Norway. By doing a document analysis of the planning documents for the implementation, we assess to what extend evidence from the scientific community is explicitly referenced and used in the implementation planning. We found that evidence available is not explicitly used, and that evidence required is not widely available.
