Unintended consequences are frequently discussed and applied to various situations in sociology, economics, politics, ergonomics, and medicine. Yet, unintended consequences are rarely conceptually clarified for precision and concept maturity. Change [...], A principle-based concept analysis was utilized to enhance the clarity of the concept, unintended consequences of the electronic health record. This iterative review method critically examined the literature to add synthesis summaries and evaluate concept maturity. Key Words: Unintended consequences, electronic health record (EHR), concept analysis.

Over the past decade, health care has experienced a wide-spread implementation of the electronic health record (EHR). The EHR initiative stemmed from the need to improve healthcare quality and safety, [...], This literature review consists of an appraisal of nursing cognitive overload and electronic documentation burden literature. Review findings are synthesized into two themes: 'user-centered redesign' and 'cognitive support needed for nurses.' Identified literature gaps are presented with recommendations. Key Words: Cognitive overload, documentation burden, nursing documentation, electronic health record (EHR).
