Reasons for not using EHR to search for potential trial participants overall and by region: cannot access EHR at institution = “I cannot access EHR at my institution”; EHR not accessible in the country = “EHR is generally not accessible in my country”; lack technical support = “There is no sufficient technical support to obtain a list of potential participants”; EHR search is too time-consuming = “Conducting an EHR search is too time-consuming”; EHR list too cumbersome = “The list generated from an EHR search is too cumbersome/overwhelming”; patients not seeing the provider = “Many patients identified through EHR search are not seeing a provider I work with”; patients not interested = “Many patients identified through EHR search are not interested in participating”; and too difficult to get approval = “It is too difficult to get approval to do this sort of mass screening.” EHR, electronic health record
