Bridging the Evidence-to-Practice Gap at Scale: Evolving Evidence2Practice Ontario by Using the Pan-Canadian HALO Framework
Clinical decision support tools such as Evidence2Practice Ontario (E2P) can be an effective way to reduce the 17-year gap between clinical innovation and its use in practice. To enhance the interoperability and scalability of E2P we propose leveraging the pan-Canadian Health Application Lightweight Protocol (HALO) framework. Public and private developers could be informed by E2P as the initial use case to test the capability of HALO to support clinical decision support tools.
