GAD screening, diagnosis, and management are challenging, among other issues that capture the attention of primary care physicians (PCPs). Measurement-based care (MBC) involves the systematic assessment of patients' symptoms and treatment progress using standardized tools. Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-Item (GAD-7) is a well-known screening and symptom-monitoring tool for GAD. It quantifies subjective symptoms objectively by measuring the patient's anxiety level. We aimed to increase utilization of GAD-7 in outpatient clinics to improve diagnosis and management of GAD through educational interventions and by educating PCPs to access the GAD-7 tool in the EPIC electronic medical record (EMR) with ease.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>This study employed a quasi-experimental interrupted time series design over 12 months. The intervention involved displaying posters educating family physicians on accessing GAD-7 screening tools in EMR and using smart phrases to document GAD-7 results in two outpatient family medicine clinics. SlicerDicer measured total anxiety encounters and GAD-7 utilization 3 months before and 9 months after intervention.

Digital health technologies, such as connected healthcare systems, have the potential to reduce pharmaceutical errors and increase patient safety. This systematic review was conducted to find literature evidence to improve patient safety and reduce medication errors with connected healthcare interventions. This systematic review was conducted using the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. PubMed, SCOPUS, EBSCO, and Google Scholar databases were searched from January 1, 2000 to June 30, 2024 using keywords: medication errors, patient safety, and connected healthcare. A qualitative narrative analysis was conducted for the review. The detailed search yielded 9524 papers in total. In the process of duplicate removal, 4856 duplicate articles were found. After the removal of duplicate articles, 4615 were found not suitable or relevant to the topic of this study and were removed. Finally, 53 articles were chosen for the review study after screening and duplication removal. Ten of the 53 articles were review articles (18.9%), and 43 (81.1%) were original. The research indicates that various connected healthcare system technologies are more effective in minimizing errors and enhancing care quality. Integrating computerized physician order entry and clinical decision support systems may further reduce medical errors. However, many areas require additional research, and the outcomes are mixed.
