==Abstract==
This is a review of a study that examines the benefits of and barriers to implementing [[CPOE]] [http://clinfowiki.org/wiki/index.php/Computerized_physician_order_entry]. The study noted that CPOE combined with [[CDS]] is capable of reducing medical errors and Adverse drug effects. However, it states those benefits comes with the burden of high implementation cost and practitioners’ resistance to change.

Medical errors and ADEs can be significantly reduced by implementing CPOE, suggested the article. On top of that, CPOE coupled with CDSS increases patient safety and improves care quality. Yet, implementation cost has been the major barrier for wider adoption of CPOE at different levels of healthcare systems.

===Introduction===
 +
The article beginnings by explaining the [[HITECH]] Act and the goals set forward for the use of [[Health information technology]]. It is explained that [[meaningful use]] is a standard for a certified [[electronic health record]]. The author explains that there are many patient injuries and deaths due to adverse drug events and preventable medical errors.

===Methods===
[[Category: CPOE]]
+
The author used a three step process for this study:
[[Category: CDS]]
+
1. Literature Identification and Collection
 +
2. Literature Analysis
 +
3. Literature Categorization.
 +
 
 +
===Results===
 +
The author found that multiple benefits can be found from the adoption of CPOE such as: increased availability in the medical record, ability for physicians to work remotely, increase coordination of care and an estimated 70% reduction in medication errors. It was also estimated that a $7 to $16 million were saved due to reduction in adverse drug events.
 +
 
 +
===Conclusion===
 +
The article shows many examples in which CPOE has increased patient safety and quality of care. It also shows the financial benefit it can have due to avoidance of repeated tests and reduction in ADEs.
 +
 
 +
===Comments===
 +
This article is a compilation of many studies that have been done on the impact of CPOE. It is clear that many institutions have seen a positive impact when a well designed CPOE system is implemented. The article also points out that regardless of all the positive impact shown in previous studies the implementation of CPOE still faces resistance.
