Yahoo News Ebola EHR (electronic health records)
Hospital officials initially blamed a flawed records system for the mix-up but have since retracted that account.
Authorities at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas first said they had “thoroughly reviewed the chain of events” and blamed a flawed computer system for hospital staff's failure to recognize that Liberian native Thomas Eric Duncan was at high risk for the deadly disease.
Late Friday – 24 hours after releasing the details in “in the interest of transparency” – the hospital modified its original explanation of what had happened. Revising the earlier account, officials said that Duncan’s travel history was visible to all in the hospital’s electronic health record (EHR) system.
“There was no flaw in the EHR in the way the physician and nursing portions interacted related to this event,” the hospital said in a written statement.
But as of Saturday afternoon, no other explanation for the oversight had been given. Emails to the hospital with specific questions from Yahoo News have not been returned for days.
