title = "The Implication of Latent Information Quality to the Reproducibility of Secondary Use of Electronic Health Records",
abstract = "Reproducibility is an important quality criterion for the secondary use of electronic health records (EHRs). However, multiple barriers to reproducibility are embedded in the heterogeneous EHR environment. These barriers include complex processes for collecting and organizing EHR data and dynamic multi-level interactions occurring during information use (e.g., inter-personal, inter-system, and cross-institutional). To ensure reproducible use of EHRs, we investigated four information quality dimensions and examine the implications for reproducibility based on a real-world EHR study. Four types of IQ measurements suggested that barriers to reproducibility occurred for all stages of secondary use of EHR data. We discussed our recommendations and emphasized the importance of promoting transparent, high-throughput, and accessible data infrastructures and implementation best practices (e.g., data quality assessment, reporting standard).",
