Problem: We are in the era of data overload, which is crippling healthcare. This is the information gap causing a loss of situational awareness. In order to turn data into information, caregivers must accumulate the data from multiple sources, store it in their working memory, integrate and process it into relevant information. In healthcare, data are scattered across multiple sources; difficult to use EHR’s, handwritten report sheets, post-it notes, and even paper towels. The workload involved in accumulating these data and the cognitive process of turning it into information is exhausting, contributes to a loss of situational awareness, uninformed and slow decision-making, and harms patients. This all costs the US trillions of dollars every year and loss of quality of life for all.
