Objective To evaluate the application of Delone & Mclean (D&M) model in foreign health information technology (HIT), summarize each variable with its emphasis on HIT, in order to provide a reference and theoretical guidance for the evaluation HIT in clinical practice in China. Methods Ovid-medline, Embase, PubMed, Engineering Village, Web of Science, EBSCO, Wanfang Data, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure and VIP databases were searched from January 1993 to April 2015. Included articles focused on studies about D&M model applied in HIT. Two reviewers independently screened titles and abstracts to determine inclusion status. The process was completed by Endnote X6. Results Finally, there were 14 eligible full-text papers. In the evaluation, Europe and US accounted for 64.29% in the leading place, Australasia ranked second with 28.57%, and Asia was at last with 7.1%. So it is significant to draw lessons from foreign research. For the methods of data collection, survey was widely used (91.7%). The system quality, information quality and service quality had a significant positive correlation with users' satisfaction and net benefit. Conclusion D&M Model is a good tool to assess HIT.
