Abstract
Electronic clinical quality measures (eCQMs) are a method that automatically extract data from electronic health records (EHRs) and compute and generate the results to report and track the quality of care and patient outcomes. The purpose of this study was to explore nurses' attitudes toward eCQMs and the factors influencing this attitude. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted using a closed-ended questions survey of 92 nurses in a teaching hospital. The average score for nurses' attitudes toward eCQMs was 3.47 out of 4. Participants with a master's degree had more positive attitudes than those with a baccalaureate degree. Head nurses had more positive attitudes than staff nurses. The nurses in the study hospital have a positive attitude toward eCQMs. Health care organizations should strengthen the attitudes of nurses toward eCQMs.
