This is a review of Magid, Forrer, and Shaha’s 2012 article, Duplicate Orders: An Unintended Consequence of Computerized provider/physician order entry (CPOE) Implementation: Analysis and Mitigation Strategies [1]

Background

The benefits of computerized provider/physician order entry (CPOE) have been. CPOE, particularly with clinical decision support (CDS), has been shown to increase patient safety. CPOE has also been reported to improve:[1]

  • The utilization of health care services
  • Decrease costs
  • Reduce hospital length of stay
  • Decrease medical errors
  • Improve compliance with guidelines

CPOE systems improve legibility and decrease errors relating to look-alike, sound-alike medications. Reductions in medication errors have been noted for:[1]

  • Dosing
  • Frequency
  • Route
  • Substitution
  • Allergies

Improved prescribing practices with respect to use of proper drugs, dosing and timing have also been documented.[1]
