Association between elements of electronic health record systems and the weekend effect in urgent general surgery.

Hospitals with electronic operating room scheduling and electronic bed management systems were less likely to demonstrate the weekend effect. These results suggest that health information technology can be employed to mitigate the weekend effect.
