The effect of implementing computerized provider order entry on medication prescribing errors in an emergency department.
Medication errors are a major concern in the Emergency Department (ED). We examined medication prescribing errors among consecutive adult ED patients during two 10-day periods before and during one 9-day period after implementing computerized provider order entry in an adult ED. 2,073 patients had 5,950, orders. Before (after) implementation there were 3.7 (2.8) potential adverse drug events, 222.0 (21.0) medication prescribing errors, and 5.1 (0) rule violations per 100 orders.

Migrating toward a next-generation clinical decision support application: the BJC HealthCare experience.
The next-generation model outlined in the AMIA Roadmap for National Action on Clinical Decision Support (CDS) is aimed to optimize the effectiveness of CDS interventions, and to achieve widespread adoption. BJC HealthCare re-engineered its existing CDS system in alignment with the AMIA roadmap and plans to use it for guidance on further enhancements. ⋯ Rules were separated from execution code and made customizable for multi-facility deployment. Those changes resulted in system improvement in the short term while aligning with long-term strategic objectives.
