Clinical System Design (CSD)

Clinical System Design (CSD) is the process for planning, selecting, designing and building clinical content in the Connect Care clinical information system (CIS). It is one of the major activities taking place during the design phase of the Connect Care initiative, together with Groundwork, Direction-Setting, Adoption and Validation. It also persists through stabilization, optimization and continuing improvement.

Core content (Core CSD), such as a default format for progress notes, applies to multiple areas or contexts across the continuum of care. Specialty content (Specialty CSD), such as how a particular procedure report is formatted, serves specific clinical areas, programs, subspecialties or contexts.
