Devising outlier-based alerts for medication orders
Drugs are chemical substances, which can, on consumption and under certain conditions, be toxic and cause Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) in patients. This paper puts forth the proposition of generating a systemic alert to a clinician, at the time of placing a medication order for a patient, when the number of ADRs associated with the selected medication is significantly different from the number...
متن کاملListen carefully: the risk of error in spoken medication orders.
Clinicians and patients often confuse drug names that sound alike. We conducted auditory perception experiments in the United States to assess the impact of similarity, familiarity, background noise and other factors on clinicians' (physicians, family pharmacists, nurses) and laypersons' ability to identify spoken drug names. We found that accuracy increased significantly as the signal-to-noise...

متن کاملUsing partial orders for trace theoretic verification of asynchronous circuits
In this paper, we propose a method to generate the reduced state spaces in which the trace theoretic verification method of asynchronous circuits works correctly and efficiently. The state space reduction is based on the stubborn set method and similar ideas, but they have been extended so that the conformance checking works correctly in the reduced state space. Our state reduction algorithm al...
