Improve CPOE Adoption by Using a Phased, Flexible Implementation Process
ثبت نشده
چکیده
From a process perspective, the traditional “big bang” CPOE implementation is a big bear. CPOE deployments historically have taken a lot of time, staff and financial resources. Much of this has been driven by system requirements for practice standardization, as well as highly complex system builds and configurations, including creation of an order catalog and order sets. In a “big bang”, the entire hospital goes live on CPOE all at once (the proverbial “flip of a switch”); it’s out with the old, in with the new, and no looking back. The potential for both culture shock and workflow disruption is vast.

Introduction: Despite potential benefits of CPOE (Computerized Physician Order Entry) systems, recent studies have cast some doubts on their role in reducing errors. CPOE systems with poorly designed interfaces have proven to cause dissatisfaction and introduce new kinds of errors in the ordering process. The main objective of this study is to identify problems related to a CPOE medication syst...
