摘要
This audit aimed to measure the impact of introducing and then modifying an electronic patient record (EPR) system on the uptake of HIV testing at a level 3 genitourinary medicine service. It was a retrospective case note review of all new and rebook patients attending our service in 2007 (paper records) and 2010 (EPR), and a prospective review in 2012 (following modification of the EPR). The uptake of HIV testing increased significantly from 72.8% to 78.1% following introduction of the EPR (p = 0.009), and increased further to 86.6% (p < 0.0001) following modification of the EPR. Clinics using paper notes should consider switching to EPR as a means of increasing HIV testing uptake.
