Clinical Team Functioning and IT Innovation: A Study of the Diffusion of a Point-of-care Online Evidence System

A. Sophie Gosling · 2003 · Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association

Summary. Clinical team functioning significantly affects whether healthcare teams effectively use online evidence systems to improve patient care, though it doesn't determine initial awareness or adoption. Small teams showed greater awareness of the system than large teams. The study of 180 clinicians across three Australian hospitals demonstrates that team climate matters most at the implementation stage of innovation diffusion, supporting Rogers' diffusion theory.
