Background

This article describes some of the impact that Computerized Provider Order Entry (CPOE) can have on clinical workflow. Physicians use CPOE to order things such as labs, medications, and imaging. Although CPOE can reduce costs, reduce errors, and promote standardization, and reduce redundancy in orders, it can also negatively impact clinical workflow. [1]

Methods

The researchers visited 5 hospitals over a period of three years and collected data. They collected their data via interviews and by shadowing clinicians which included physicians, nurses, pharmacists, and the administrator. The clinicians were asked to report unintended consequences related to CPOE.
