Figure 13 above shows there has been an increase in usability and workforce satisfaction studies over time. Despite this, there have been many recommendations from authors that more research is needed in this area (Baysari et al., 2019; Dabliz et al., 2021; Lloyd et al., 2021; E. N. Munyisia et al., 2012). Only four of the 10 studies reporting on usability stated the system used, three of which were Cerner. 50% of studies reporting on workforce satisfaction were related to Cerner.
