Technology alone is not enough. If we want digital tools to genuinely enhance clinical decision-making rather than drain cognitive bandwidth, healthcare leadership must shift toward a behavioral and workflow-centric approach.
The core findings break down into three interconnected domains:
1๏ธโฃ ๐ง๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ต๐ป๐ผ๐น๐ผ๐ด๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐น: While AI, usability, and data architecture dominate current research, foundational ICT infrastructure and backend stability remain critical, yet surprisingly overlooked, bottlenecks.
2๏ธโฃ ๐๐๐บ๐ฎ๐ป ๐๐ฎ๐ฐ๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐: User familiarity, cognitive workload, and behavioral nudges make or break adoption. A feature does not add value unless it seamlessly integrates into clinical reasoning.
3๏ธโฃ ๐๐ป๐๐๐ถ๐๐๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐ฎ๐น & ๐ช๐ผ๐ฟ๐ธ๐ณ๐น๐ผ๐: Implementations fail when tools disrupt real-world clinical tempo. Strategic alignment, access optimization, and deep customization to local workflows are non-negotiable.
