Electronic Patient Record (EPR) systems are digital tools used in healthcare settings to manage patient information. They provide a centralised platform for healthcare providers to access and update patient data, including medical history, test results, treatments, and medications. The implementation of EPR systems in hospitals has the potential to improve patient outcomes and streamline processes, making it easier for healthcare providers to make informed decisions about patient care.

However, the implementation of EPR systems also presents a range of challenges, particularly in terms of data quality. Data quality refers to the accuracy, completeness, and consistency of the information stored in the EPR system. Ensuring the quality of data in the EPR system is essential to ensure that healthcare providers have accurate and up-to-date information to make informed decisions about patient care.
