We take this approach with the recognition that information technology-based solutions in health care often fall short of expectations as a result of designers' failure to account for organizational and work practice considerations, and the needs of end-users. We describe how integrating qualitative methods into an iterative participatory design process (planned in partnership with end-users) will allow us to address specific clinical needs, conceptualize linkages between systems, integrate the reporting system into clinicians' workflow, and design the system to optimize its uptake into practice.
