A prospective before-and-after interventional study was conducted on 40 medical interns. The interns were asked to use the CA-DSS during a one-month internship course at the infectious disease department. The main outcome measure was the knowledge of medical interns regarding the type, name, volume, usual dosages, and administration route of antibiotics prescribed. Paired t-test was applied to assess the change of medical interns\u2019 knowledge before and after the study. There was a statistically significant difference between the mean score of interns\u2019 medical knowledge before 5.4\u00b12 and after 9.1\u00b12.8 using the CA-DSS (p = 0.000). CA-DSS as an IT-based training intervention was effective for the knowledge of medical interns to prescribe the right antibiotics for acute respiratory infections.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3233\/shti210920","type":"book-chapter","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,17]],"date-time":"2022-01-17T15:55:36Z","timestamp":1642434936000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Effects of Computer-Aided Decision Support Systems on Appropriate Antibiotic Prescribing by Medical Interns: A Quasi-Experimental Study"],"prefix":"10.3233","author":[{"given":"Fatemeh","family":"Rangraz Jeddi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Health Information Management Research Center, Kashan University of Medical Sciences, Kashan, Iran"},{"name":"Department of Health Information Management & Technology, School of Allied Health Professions, Kashan University of Medical Sciences, Kashan, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mansooreh","family":"Momen-Heravi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Infectious Diseases Research Center, Kashan University of Medical Sciences, Iran"},{"name":"Department of Infectious Diseases, School of Medicine, Kashan University of Medical Sciences, Kashan, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ehsan","family":"Nabovati","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Health Information Management Research Center, Kashan University of Medical Sciences, Kashan, Iran"},{"name":"Department of Health Information Management & Technology, School of Allied Health Professions, Kashan University of Medical Sciences, Kashan, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Felix","family":"Holl","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Digi Health Institute, Neu-Ulm University of Applied Sciences, Neu-Ulm, Germany"},{"name":"IGHS, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, CA, USA"},{"name":"IBE, Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hossein","family":"Akbari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Social Determinants of Health (SDH) Research Center, Kashan University of Medical Sciences, Kashan, Iran"},{"name":"Department of Biostatistics and Epidemiology, School of Public Health, Kashan University of Medical Sciences, Kashan, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Razieh","family":"Farrahi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Health Information Management & Technology, School of Allied Health Professions, Kashan University of Medical Sciences, Kashan, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"7437","container-title":["Studies in Health Technology and Informatics","Informatics and Technology in Clinical Care and Public Health"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/ebooks.iospress.nl\/pdf\/doi\/10.3233\/SHTI210920","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,17]],"date-time":"2022-01-17T15:55:37Z","timestamp":1642434937000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/ebooks.iospress.nl\/doi\/10.3233\/SHTI210920"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,14]]},"references-count":0,"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3233\/shti210920","relation":{},"ISSN":["0926-9630","1879-8365"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0926-9630","type":"print"},{"value":"1879-8365","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,14]]}}}
