    Abstract

    The purpose of this study is to understand the potential relationship between the ways primary care doctors interact with electronic health records (EHRs) and the eye gaze patterns of doctors and patients during primary care visits. Forty primary care encounters where doctors used two different EHR interaction styles were analyzed. This study used a lag analysis method to analyze the eye-gaze patterns between doctor and patient for each style. Differences and similarities in eye gaze behavior patterns were found between the two styles. The results of this study may inform guidelines for EHR design and implementation and inform EHR interaction training.
