Abstract 266: No Impact of Electronic Health Records on Quality of Care and Outcomes for Ischemic Stroke [Session Title: Poster Session II]

Conclusions: In our sample of GWTG-Stroke hospitals, EHRs were not associated with higher-quality care or better clinical outcomes. Given that these systems often create significant added burden for clinicians, further work to ensure that they are better integrated with care and fully evidence-driven is critical.
